Question

Define the following terms
a. Solute b. solvent
c. Soluble d. Saturated Solution
e. Conservation of mass(with formula)

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Solute

the minor component in a solution, dissolved in the solvent.

solvent

a liquid that can dissolve another substance

soluble

that will dissolve in liquid.

saturated solution

A saturated solution is a solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that is capable of being dissolved. At 20°C, the maximum amount of NaCl that will dissolve in 100. g of water is 36.0 g. If any more NaCl is added past that point, it will not dissolve because the solution is saturated.

Conversation of mass

The Law of Conservation of Mass dates from Antoine Lavoisier's 1789 discovery that mass is neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions. In other words, the mass of any one element at the beginning of a reaction will equal the mass of that element at the end of the reaction.
