  2. Solubility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility

    The solution was initially prepared at 20 °C and then stored for 2 days at 4 °C. In chemistry, solubility is the ability of a substance, the solute, to form a solution with another substance, the solvent. Insolubility is the opposite property, the inability of the solute to form such a solution. The extent of the solubility of a substance in ...

  3. Solution (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_(chemistry)

    Solution (chemistry) Making a saline water solution by dissolving table salt ( NaCl) in water. The salt is the solute and the water the solvent. In chemistry, a solution is a special type of homogeneous mixture composed of two or more substances. In such a mixture, a solute is a substance dissolved in another substance, known as a solvent.

  4. Solvation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvation

    Solvation or dissolution is a kinetic process and is quantified by its rate. Solubility quantifies the dynamic equilibrium state achieved when the rate of dissolution equals the rate of precipitation. The consideration of the units makes the distinction clearer. The typical unit for dissolution rate is mol/s.

  5. Separatory funnel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separatory_funnel

    A separatory funnel, also known as a separation funnel, separating funnel, or colloquially sep funnel, is a piece of laboratory glassware used in liquid-liquid extractions to separate ( partition) the components of a mixture into two immiscible solvent phases of different densities. [1] Typically, one of the phases will be aqueous, and the ...

  6. Characteristic property - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_property

    Characteristic property. A characteristic property is a chemical or physical property that helps identify and classify substances. The characteristic properties of a substance are always the same whether the sample being observed is large or small. Thus, conversely, if the property of a substance changes as the sample size changes, that ...

  7. Sodium benzoate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_benzoate

    Sodium benzoate also known as benzoate of soda is the sodium salt of benzoic acid, widely used as a food preservative (with an E number of E211) and a pickling agent. It appears as a white crystalline chemical with the formula C 6 H 5 COONa.

  8. Phase (matter) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_(matter)

    v. t. e. In the physical sciences, a phase is a region of material that is chemically uniform, physically distinct, and (often) mechanically separable. In a system consisting of ice and water in a glass jar, the ice cubes are one phase, the water is a second phase, and the humid air is a third phase over the ice and water.

  9. Ethyl oleate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethyl_oleate

    Ethyl oleate is produced by the body during ethanol intoxication. [8] It is one of the fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEE) produced after ingestion of ethanol. Some research literature implicates FAEEs such as ethyl oleate as the toxic mediators of ethanol in the body (pancreas, liver, heart, and brain). [9] [10] Ethyl oleate may be the toxic ...
