Define saturated solution and diffusion |
|
Answer» ed solutionWhen the solution equilibrium point is REACHED and no more solute will DISSOLVE, the solution is said to be saturated. A saturated solution is a solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that is CAPABLE of being dissolved. At 20°C, the maximum amount of NaCl that will dissolve in 100. g of WATER is 36.0 g.Diffusion Diffusion is the net MOVEMENT of anything from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. Diffusion is driven by a gradient in concentration. The concept of diffusion is widely used in many fields, including physics, chemistry, biology, sociology, economics, and finance. |
