đ§ Solutes
Dissolve
When a substance mixes completely into a liquid and seems to disappear.
đ When a SOLUTE dissolves in a SOLVENT, it creates a SOLUTION.
Solubility
How much of a substance can dissolve in a liquid at a certain temperature.
đ Higher temperature usually means higher SOLUBILITY - more SOLUTE can DISSOLVE!
Solution
A mixture where one substance is completely dissolved in another.
đ SOLUTION = SOLUTE + SOLVENT (Example: Salt water is a solution!)
Solute
The substance that gets dissolved (usually the smaller amount).
đ In this lab, salt, sugar, and baking soda are SOLUTES that DISSOLVE in water!
Solvent
The substance that does the dissolving (usually the larger amount).
đ Water is called the "universal SOLVENT" because it can DISSOLVE so many SOLUTES!
