a homogenous mixture of 2 or more substances
solution
substances present in a small amount; the dissolved substance.
solvent
the substance present in a larger amount; dissolve the solute
solvent
contains less solute than the solvent has the capacity to dissolve at a specific temperature.
unsaturated solution
contains the maximum amount of a solute that will dissolve in a given solvent at a specific temperature.
saturated solution
______ form when a seed crystal is added to a supersaturated solution of sodium acetate.
Sodium acetate crystals

ionic compounds
The stronger the intermolecular attractions between solute and solvent, the more likely the solute will dissolve.
intermolecular attractions between solute and solvent,
Intermolecular forces =
