to determine whether an acid or a base is soluble in say the universal polar solvent water, u should be knowing whether the substance is strong or weak\nnow bases like NaOH, CsOH, RbOH, Mg(OH)2 are strong bases and in solution they give us the cations and anions(mostly the hydroxyl grp)\nbases like Be(OH)2, Fe(OH)2 or 3, Cu(OH)2 or any of their oxides are weak and hence in solution they do not undergo complete dissociation and most of these are insoluble\nso in case ur not in a lab, the only way is to identify their degree of weakness

To perform a solution-based separation, you need a solvent in which one or some of the solutes (in the mixture to be separated) is/are highly soluble, and in which the other components are highly insoluble.\n\nA simple example might be separating an ethanol/pentane mixture by using water.  Ethanol, being polar, will readily dissolve in water; but the nonpolar pentane will not.

liquid? if u mean state of matter.

when the solvent (liquid) can no longer dissolve any more solute (solid) and particles of the solute remain in the solution.\n\neg: sugar in tea...if you add too much sugar (solute) to the tea (solvent) the sugar sinks to the bottom and wont dissolve. \n\nTasty but saturated!

A solute is the solid that is dissolved in a liquid. The solvent is the liquid in which something is dissolved in. For example, with salt water, the Na and Cl are the two solutes, and the H2O is the solvent.

(m)\n\nA mixture of two or more substances that cannot be easily separated by common physical means (ie settling, filtration, etc.). A mixture with no visible separation between its components. For example, salt and water. Compare to heterogeneous mixture.

A fluid is a material that flows, such as a liquid or a gas. The fluid of a solution is usually the solvent. The material other than the solvent is the solute. We say that we dissolve the solute into the solvent.\n\nSome solutions are so common to us that we give them a unique name. A solution of water and sugar is called syrup. A solution of sodium chloride (common table salt) in water is called brine. A sterilized specific concentration (0.15 molar) of sodium chloride in water is called saline. A solution of carbon dioxide in water is called seltzer, and a solution of ammonia gas in water is called ammonia water.\n\nA solution is said to be dilute if there is less of the solute. The process of adding more solvent to a solution or removing some of the solute is called diluting. A solution is said to be concentrated if it has more solute. The process of adding more solute or removing some of the solvent is called concentrating. The concentration of a solution is some measurement of how much solute there is in the solution.\n\nIt might initially offend your sensibilities to consider a solution in which the solvent is a gas or a solid. The molecules of a gas do not have much interaction among them, and so do not participate to a large extent in the dissolving process. Solids are difficult to consider as solvents because there is a lack of motion of the particles of a solid relative to each other. There are, however, some good reasons to view some mixtures of these types as solutions. The molecules of a gas do knock against each other, and the motion of a gas can assist in vaporizing material from a liquid or solid state. The fan in a 'frost free' home freezer moves air around inside the freezer to sublimate any exposed ice directly into water vapor, a process clearly akin to dissolving. Solid metals can absorb hydrogen gas in a mixing process in which the metal clearly provides the structure.\n\nTrue solutions with liquid solvents have the following properties:\n\nPROPERTIES OF SOLUTIONS\n\n   1. The particles of solute are the size of individual small molecules or individual small ions. One nanometer is about the maximum diameter for a solute particle.\n   2. The mixture does not separate on standing. In a gravity environment the solution will not come apart due to any difference in density of the materials in the solution.\n   3. The mixture does not separate by common fiber filter. The entire solution will pass through the filter.\n   4. Once it is completely mixed, the mixture is homogeneous. If you take a sample of the solution from any point in the solution, the proportions of the materials will be the same.\n   5. The mixture appears clear rather than cloudy. It may have some color to it, but it seems to be transparent otherwise. The mixture shows no Tyndall effect. Light is not scattered by the solution. If you shine a light into the solution, the pathway of the light through the solution is not revealed to an observer out of the pathway.\n   6. The solute is completely dissolved into the solvent up to a point characteristic of the solvent, solute, and temperature. At a saturation point the solvent no longer can dissolve any more of the solute. If there is a saturation point, th

if i recall correctly you are mixing two (or more) substances together, generally liquid, and solids form and precipitate out of solution.  (basically some solid chunks form from the mixture of the liquid)

It is a chemical that you keep at all times.  In a typical lab that would include acid, bases, certain organic solvents, etc.  You will also hear stock solutions which are solutions of these chemicals.  Do not confuse these with standard solutions which are solutions where the concentration is exactly known.

IF substance contains both hydrophobic and hydrophilic parts:\n  Make the part that is soluble in polar solvents i.e the part having polarity in water and rest in some nonpolar solvent.\n\nIFsubstance is purely ionic represent it as ions in water.

Sodium Hydroxide (aqueous). It's a solution in water of the compound NaOH.

True. water is essential for the transport of nutrients within them, since it is the "universal solvent".

mixture-any combination or blend of different elements, kinds, qualities, etc.: a mixture of good and bad traits. \n\nsubstance-that of which a thing consists; physical matter or material\n\ncapillary actions-a phenomenon associated with surface tension and resulting in the elevation or depression of liquids in capillaries\n\nsolvent-a substance that dissolves another to form a solution: example: Water is a solvent for sugar.
