Concentration  -  The amount of solute dissolved in a given amount of solvent.

Dissolve  -  To become a part of a solution.

Enthalpy of Solution  -  The amount of heat absorbed upon the formation of a solution by a solute and a solvent.

Entropy of Solution  -  The amount of disorder created by the formation of a solution by a solute and a solvent.

Henry's Law  -  The solubility of a gas in a solvent is proportional to the pressure of the gas above the solvent.

Le Chatelier's Principle  -  A system at equilibrium will react to a change by opposing that change.

Non-polar  -  A molecule with a low net dipole.

Polar  -  A molecule with a large net dipole.

Solubility  -  The amount of a particular solute that can dissolve in a given amount of a particular solvent. Solubilities are generally listed in g / L.

Solute  -  A minor component of a solution.

Solution  -  A homogeneous mixture.

Solvent  -  The major component of a solution.
