Properties of Solution

Solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved.

• unsaturated solution

• supersaturated solution

• saturated solution

When a certain amount of solvent cannot hold any more solute it is called a ________ solution.

• Diluted
• Saturated

How does a solution become supersaturated?

• dissolve lots of solute in it.
• dissolve a little solute in it. 
• dissolve more solute than you should be able to. 
• dissolve a solvent in it.

Solubility refers to the ____ of solute that can dissolve in a certain volume or mass of solvent, at a certain temperature.

• Mean

• Range

• Amount

• Mode

A small amount of NaCl is dissolved in water to make a solution. In this solution

• water is the precipitate

• water is the solute

• NaCl is the solvent

• NaCl is the solute

Solution where more solute can still be dissolved at the given temperature. 

• Saturated
• Unsaturated
• Supersaturated
• Homogeneous solution

What happens to the concentration of saltwater if you left it boiling on a stove without a lid?

• It becomes diluted as the water evaporates

• It becomes more concentrated as the water evaporates.

• The concentration does not change.

In a solution, what is the solute?
