quantitatively
LET’S REVIEW

Matter

Mixtures Pure Substances

Heterogeneous Homogeneous Elements Compounds

MIXTURES
HETEROGENEOUS HOMOGENEOUS
a mixture of two or more substances a type of mixture in which the
where the various components can composition is uniform and every
be visually distinguished part of the mixture has the same
properties; also called as
SOLUTIONS
Examples of Mixtures

Mixed Nuts Bowl of Cereal Cup of Coffee

Orange Juice Conglomerate Rock Mayonnaise

SOLUTIONS
a homogeneous mixture of two or
more substances
may exist in any phase
consists of a solute and a solvent
The solute (minor component) is the substance that is
dissolved in the solvent (major component).
 Solutions may exists in any phase

Liquid - Liquid Gas - Gas Solid - Solid Solid - Liquid

Gas - Liquid Liquid - Gas Solid - Liquid

 TYPE OF SOLUTION

SATURATED SOLUTION UNSATURATED SOLUTION

contains the maximum amount of contains less than the maximum
solute that is capable of being amount of solute that is capable of
dissolved being dissolved

SUPERSATURATED SOLUTION
contains more of the dissolved material than could be dissolved by the solvent
under normal circumstances
 CONCENTRATION OF SOLUTIONS
a measure of the amount of solute that has been dissolved in a
given amount of solvent or solution
 Concentration of Solutions
DILUTED CONCENTRATED
one that has a relatively small one that has a relatively large
amount of dissolved solute amount of dissolved solute
 Concentration Expressions

Mass percent Mass/volume percent

Mass of solute divided by the Mass of solute divided by the
total mass of solution multiplied volume of solution times 100 %.
by 100 %.

Volume percent
Volume of solute divided by the
volume of solution times 100 %
