Document Summary

There are many types of solutions and they may be composed of gases, solids or liquids. Solutions in which water is used as a solvent are called aqueous solutions. Even though water is the universal solvent, it cannot dissolve everything, for example, oil. But there are other solvents that can dissolve liquids such as oil. When solute dissolves in a solvent, it has a certain solubility. The solubility is how much of a solute can dissolve in a given amount of solvent. Usually when a proton and an electron move closer to each other, their potential energy goes down. But in case of solutions, when a mixture is created the particles" potential energy does not go down. For example, when there is barrier between two gases that have low pressure and moderate temperatures, they behave ideally. When the barrier is removed, they mix on their own tendencies and their potential energy remains the same.
