¨ Identify the solute, solvent, and type of a given solution.
¨ Explain the process of solvation.
¨ Identify factors that increase rate of solution for solids & gases.
Ch. 15 – Solubility & Concentration (p. 424-431)
¨ Define concentrated, dilute, and solubility.
¨ Describe the use of %mass and %volume.

Ch. 17 – Intro to Acids & Bases (p. 466-473)
¨ Define acid, base, hydronium ion, and indicator.
¨ Identify the properties of acids and bases.
Ch. 17 – Strength Acids & Bases (p. 474-477)
¨ Differentiate between strong and weak acids/bases.
