Question | Answer |
---|---|
Solution (Soln) | made up of solvent and a solute |
Solute | always the smallest part of a solution |
Solvent | always the largest part of the solution |
Hypertonic | the solution with the highest percentage of solute |
Hypotonic | the solution with the lowest percentage of solute |
Isotonic | when two solutions have the same level of solute |
Permeable | solute and solvent can move through it |
Semi permeable | only one thing can move through it, either solvent or solute, but not both |
Impermeable | neither solute or solvent can move through it |
Universal Solvent | always water |
Diffusion is faster with: | A. Smaller molecular size B. Higher temperature C. Greater concentration |
osmosis | the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane |
Brownian motion | randomly moving water molecules |
