Chapter 8 -Solutions, Acids, and Bases

A substance dissolves in water by breaking up into smaller pieces. The process is known as

• Ionization

• Distillation

• Dissociation

• Dispersion

The maximum amount of solute that will dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature is

• Solubility

• Concentration

• Degree of saturation

• Rate of solution

A solution that contains more solute than it would normally hold at that temperature is said to be

• Saturated

• Unsaturated

• Supersaturated

• Concentrated

The substance whose particles are dissolved in a solution

• Solvent

• Solute

• Liquid

• Solid

A solution that has dissolved all of the solute that it can hold at a given temperature is

• Saturated

• Unsaturated

• Supersaturated

• Concentrated

A solution that contains less than the maximum amount of solute it can hold is

• Saturated

• Unsaturated

• Supersaturated

• Dilute

The substance that does the dissolving

• Solvent

• Solute

• Liquid

• Solid

The rate of dissolving a solid in a liquid is ______ when you stir it

• increased

• decreased

• not affected

• slower

Each time a saturated solution is heated to a higher temperature, it becomes

• Saturated

• Unsaturated

• Supersaturated

• Concentrated

A solid will dissolve in a liquid faster if the surface area is

• Decreased

• Increased

• The same

• Less
