The film explores the concept of solutions in chemistry, defining key terms such as solute and solvent. It illustrates how solute particles dissolve and disperse uniformly in a solvent, highlighting ...

Science presenter Jon Chase demonstrates that a large piece of expanded polystyrene will dissolve in a very small volume of propanone. He defines the terms solute, solvent and solution. By dissolving ...

A colloidal solution is a uniform dispersion of two completely different types of components—particles or droplets of one phase, called the solute, in a second, typically liquid, phase, called the ...

When no more solute can be dissolved in a solvent the solution is said to be saturated. Each different substance has a different solubility. This table shows the solubility of substances in water at ...
