Solutions
Homogeneous mixture : has no visible
boundaries because the components are
mixed as individual atoms, ions, and
molecules.
Solution : A homogeneous mixture is also
called a solution. Solutions in water are
called aqueous solutions. Although we
normally think of solutions as liquids, they
can exist in all three physical states.

Components
Solute substance that is
dispersed or dissolved
Solvent substance that
facilitates the dispersing or
dissolving
Entropy will generally make
solution formation favorable!

Electrolytes
If a solute conducts electricity when
dissolved it is called an electrolyte.
Solutes that dissolve but do not form
ions form non-conducting solutions and
are called non-electrolytes.
A solute that dissociates partially and
conducts electricity on a limited basis is
called a weak electrolyte.
