Water & Solutions Vocabulary
Across
- 5. a solution in which water is the solvent
- 7. a homogeneous mixture throughout which two or more substances are uniformly dispersed
- 8. a mixture consisting of tiny particles that are intermediate in size between those in solutions and those in suspensions and that are suspended in a liquid, solid, or gas
- 10. a mixture in which particles of a material are more or less evenly dispersed throughout a liquid or gas
- 16. in a solution, the substance in which the solute dissolves
- 17. a molecule or a part of a molecule that contains both positively and negatively charged regions
- 18. a bubbling of a liquid caused by the rapid escape of a gas rather than by boiling

- 21. a solid that is produced as a result of a chemical reaction in solution
- 22. the strong affinity of water molecules for particles of dissolved or suspended substances that causes electrolytic dissociation

Down
- 1. the force that acts on the surface of a liquid and that tends to minimize the area of the surface
- 2. the attractive force between two bodies of different substances that are in contact with each other

- 15. the intermolecular force occurring when a hydrogen atom that is bonded to a highly electronegative atom of one molecule is attracted to two unshared electrons of another molecule
- 16. the ability of one substance to dissolve in another at a given temperature and pressure; expressed in terms of the amount of solute that will dissolve in a given amount of solvent to produce a saturated solution
- 19. the force that holds molecules of a single material together
- 23. the law that states that at constant temperature, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas on the surface of the liquid
- 26. describes two or more liquids that do not mix with each other
- 29. a liquid or solid substance or mixture that does not allow an electric current
- 30. describes two or more liquids that can dissolve into each other in various proportions
