Implicit solvation — (sometimes known as continuum solvation) is a method of representing solvent as a continuous medium instead of individual “explicit” solvent molecules most often used in molecular dynamics simulations and in other applications of molecular… … Wikipedia
Metal ions in aqueous solution — A metal ion in aqueous solution is a cation, dissolved in water, of chemical formula [M(H2O)n]z+. The solvation number, n, determined by a variety of experimental methods is 4 for Li+ and Be2+ and 6 for elements in rows 3 and 4 of the periodic… … Wikipedia
Quantum solvent — A quantum solvent is essentially a superfluid (aka a quantum liquid) used to dissolve another chemical species. Any superfluid can theoretically act as a quantum solvent, however in practice the only viable superfluid medium that can currently be … Wikipedia
Debye–Hückel theory — The Debye–Hückel theory was proposed by Peter Debye and Erich Hückel as a theoretical explanation for departures from ideality in solutions of electrolytes.[1] It was based on an extremely simplified model of the electrolyte solution but… … Wikipedia
Aqueous solution — Aqueous redirects here. For the fluid in the eye, see Aqueous humour. The first solvation shell of a sodium ion dissolved in water An aqueous solution is a solution in which the solvent is water. It is usually shown in chemical equations by… … Wikipedia
Solvent — For other uses, see Solvent (disambiguation). A solvent (from the Latin solvō, “I loosen, untie, I solve”) is a liquid, solid, or gas that dissolves another solid, liquid, or gaseous solute, resulting in a solution that is soluble in a certain… … Wikipedia
Solubility — Soluble redirects here. For the algebraic object called a soluble group , see Solvable group. Solubility is the property of a solid, liquid, or gaseous chemical substance called solute to dissolve in a solid, liquid, or gaseous solvent to form a… … Wikipedia

Solution — This article is about chemical solutions. For other uses, see Solution (disambiguation). 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… … Wikipedia
Saturation (chemistry) — In chemistry, saturation (from the Latin word saturare, meaning to fill[1]) has six different meanings, all based on reaching a maximum capacity In physical chemistry, saturation is the point at which a solution of a substance can dissolve no… … Wikipedia
