  2. Mixture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixture

    The basic properties of solutions are as drafted under: [citation needed] All solutions are the examples of homogeneous mixture. The particles of a homogeneous mixture are less than one nanometre in size. A homogeneous mixture does not show Tyndall effect. The constituent of homogeneous mixture cannot be separated using centrifugation or ...

    Making a saline water solution by dissolving table salt in water.The salt is the solute and the water the solvent. In chemistry, a solution is defined by IUPAC as "A liquid or solid phase containing more than one substance, when for convenience one (or more) substance, which is called the solvent, is treated differently from the other substances, which are called solutes.

  4. Miscibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miscibility

    An example in liquids is the miscibility of water and ethanol as they mix in all proportions. [1] By contrast, substances are said to be immiscible if the mixture does not form a solution for certain proportions. For one example, oil is not soluble in water, so these two solvents are immiscible

    Powder of Algaroth – antimony oxychloride, formed by precipitation when a solution of butter of antimony and spirit of salt is poured into water. Purple of Cassius – formed by precipitating a mixture of gold, stannous and stannic chlorides, with alkali. Used for glass coloring; Realgar – arsenic disulfide, an ore of arsenic.

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  7. Solid solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_solution

    Some mixtures will readily form solid solutions over a range of concentrations, while other mixtures will not form solid solutions at all. The propensity for any two substances to form a solid solution is a complicated matter involving the chemical , crystallographic , and quantum properties of the substances in question.

  8. Solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent

    When one substance dissolves into another, a solution is formed. A solution is a homogeneous mixture consisting of a solute dissolved into a solvent. The solute is the substance that is being dissolved, while the solvent is the dissolving medium. Solutions can be formed with many different types and forms of solutes and solvents.

  9. Chemical substance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_substance

    While the term chemical substance is a precise technical term that is synonymous with chemical for chemists, the word chemical is used in general usage to refer to both (pure) chemical substances and mixtures (often called compounds), [14] and especially when produced or purified in a laboratory or an industrial process.
