CHEMISTRY OF SOLUTIONS
Here are a few basic things to know about solution chemistry:-it is the study of chemical reactions in solutions
-the solution is a homogeneous mixture
-there is a solute and a solvent, solvents are the larger amounts and solutes are the smaller amounts
-a saturated solution contains the optimal amount of solutes
-a unsaturated solution can contain more solute
-solutobility is measured in g/L, g/ml, mol/L
Another major thing to keep in mind is that there are factors that can affect solubility. These include heat, and changing the amount of solvent or solutes.
Water is one of the best solvents because it is polar and is capable of creating hydrogen bonds
Example of a solution: salt water
