  • Polarity
    Describes the distribution of electrical charge within a molecule, influencing its ability to mix with other substances.
  • Intermolecular Force
    Refers to the attraction between molecules, determining whether substances can dissolve into each other.
  • Hydrogen Bonding
    A strong polar interaction occurring when hydrogen is bonded to highly electronegative atoms, enabling mixing with other polar compounds.
  • Dipole-Dipole Force
    A polar interaction between molecules with permanent dipoles, allowing them to dissolve with other polar substances.
  • London Dispersion Force
    A weak, non-polar interaction present in all molecules, but dominant in non-polar compounds, preventing mixing with polar substances.
  • Solution
    A homogeneous mixture where substances dissolve completely into each other, forming a single phase.
  • Mixture
    A combination of two or more substances that retain their individual properties and can be homogeneous or heterogeneous.
  • Homogeneous Mixture
    A uniform combination where components are evenly distributed and dissolve into each other.
  • Heterogeneous Mixture
    A non-uniform combination where components remain separate and do not dissolve into each other.
  • Solvent
    The component in a mixture that dissolves another substance, often determining the mixture's polarity.
  • Likes Dissolve Likes
    A principle stating that substances with similar polarity or intermolecular forces will mix and form solutions.
  • Non-Polar Compound
    A substance lacking significant charge separation, unable to mix with polar compounds like water.
  • Polar Compound
    A substance with uneven charge distribution, allowing it to mix with other polar substances.
