- 3. consisting of droplets that freeze rapidly on contact with a surface to form ice.

- 11. the minor component in a solution, dissolved in the solvent.
- 12. water that collects as droplets on a cold surface when humid air is in contact with it.
- 15. a liquid mixture in which the minor component (the solute) is uniformly distributed within the major component (the solvent).

- 1. a substance made by mixing other substances together.
- 2. the sticking together of particles of the same substance.
- 4. the process of turning from liquid into vapor.
