Diffusion; to spread out evenly into water or air
molecules spread out from area of HIGH conc to area of LOW cons
until spread out evenly
Equilibrium : balance achieved between forces causing the stuff to spread
heat usually, hotter gives faster diffusion
Concentration Gradient: gradual change in the amount of material dissolved
spread from higher to lower until evenly diffused
A substance that is evenly distributed in another is called a solution. In a solution, the solute (substance being dissolved) is dispersed uniformly in the solvent (substance doing the dissolving), resulting in a homogenous mixture.
The term you are looking for is "diffusion." This is the process by which molecules of a substance move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until they are evenly distributed.
Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This happens naturally as particles move randomly and collide with each other, eventually distributing themselves evenly throughout the space.
A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances where one substance is dissolved in another. The dissolved substance is called the solute, while the substance in which it is dissolved is called the solvent. Solutions can be in liquid, solid, or gaseous form.
Salt water. When the salt dissolves, it is not a chemical reaction, so no new substance is created. The water molecules surrounded each ion in the solid NaCl separating the Na+ ions from the Cl- ions.
Homogeneous
Difusion in air. Osmosis in water.
A solution consists of particles of matter dissolved in another substance. These particles are typically molecules or ions that are dispersed and evenly distributed throughout the solvent. Examples of solutions include saltwater and sugar dissolved in water.
Sugar is a substance that can completely dissolve in hot water. When added to hot water, sugar molecules disperse evenly throughout the water molecules, forming a homogeneous solution.
I believe it is a colloid: a type of mixture in which one substance is dispersed evenly throughout another.
Energy is absorbed.
A homogeneous mixture is formed when one substance dissolves into another and fills the spaces between other kinds of molecules. This type of mixture has a uniform composition throughout, with the dissolved particles evenly distributed in the solvent.
A homogeneous mixture is when particles of one substance are evenly mixed with the particles of another substance. This results in a uniform composition throughout the mixture, with no visible segregation of the components. Examples include salt dissolved in water or air.
A solution.
Diffusion
A colloid is an example of a mixture. Specifically, colloids are mixtures in which the components do not separate. Mixtures in which the components do separate are known as suspensions.
