a supersaturated solution
A solution whose concentration of solute is equal to the maximum concentration predicted from the solute's solubility is called a saturated solution. In a saturated solution, the solute is in equilibrium with its undissolved form, meaning no more solute can dissolve at that specific temperature and pressure.
The point at which a substance becomes evenly distributed throughout the solution is called equilibrium.
The ability of a solute to dissolve in a solvent at a certain temperature is called solubility. The solubility of most solids in water increases with temperature increases.
A solution with the same solute concentration as another (e.g. human body fluids) is called isotonic.
A solution with lower concentration is called a dilute solution. It contains less dissolved solute in comparison to a more concentrated solution.
A solution whose concentration of solute is equal to the maximum concentration predicted from the solute's solubility is called a saturated solution. In a saturated solution, the solute is in equilibrium with its undissolved form, meaning no more solute can dissolve at that specific temperature and pressure.
equilibrium
The point at which a substance becomes evenly distributed throughout the solution is called equilibrium.
The amount of dissolved substance in a solution is called the concentration of the solution. This can be expressed in various units such as molarity, molality, or weight/volume percentage.
The solution is called isotonic when the cell is in equilibrium. This means that the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell is the same, resulting in no net movement of water across the cell membrane.
Lower concentration of solute is known as the hypotonic solution. The solution with a higher concentration of solute is the hypertonic solution. One with equal solute in solution and whatever its being compared with is known as the isotonic solution.
The measure of how much solute is in a solution is called concentration. It is typically expressed as the amount of solute per unit volume or mass of solvent. Concentration can be measured in various units such as molarity, molality, or mass percent.
The ability of a solute to dissolve in a solvent at a certain temperature is called solubility. The solubility of most solids in water increases with temperature increases.
In an isotonic solution, cells reach a point called dynamic equilibrium where there is an equal concentration of solute inside and outside the cell. This means that there is no net movement of water into or out of the cell, maintaining cell volume and function.
"Solute per 100g solvent" is the unit given to solubility of a substance.
The concentration of water remains relatively constant compared to other reactants/products in solution, so it does not significantly affect the equilibrium constant. Additionally, water is a solvent that is usually present in large excess, so changes in its concentration have minimal impact on the equilibrium position.
Solubility is the property of a solid, liquid, or gaseous chemical substance called solute to dissolve in a solid, liquid, or gaseous solvent to form a homogeneous solution of the solute in the solvent. The solubility of a substance fundamentally depends on the used solvent as well as on temperature and pressure. The extent of the solubility of a substance in a specific solvent is measured as the saturation concentration where adding more solute does not increase the concentration of the solution.
