Solution and Rate of Solubility

Science

Not quite remember

I easily remember

Solute

A substance that can dissolve in a liquid

Solvent

Liquid that dissolves a substance

Solution

The mixture formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent

Classification of solutions

Dilute solution, concentrated solution, saturated solution

Dilute solution

Less amount of solute in the solvent

Concentrated solution

More amount of solute in the solvent

Saturated solution

Excess amount of solute in the solvent

Suspension

A cloudy mixture formed from undissolved solute particles in a solvent

Solubility

Maximum amount of the solute that can dissolve in 100 ml of solvent at a specific temperature

Factors affecting the rate of solubility

Temperature, rate of stirring and size of solute
