| Immiscible | Describes two liquids that can be mixed together but separate shortly after you cease mixing them |
| Miscible | Describes two liquids that are soluble in each other |
| Solvation | The process of surrounding solute particles with solvent particles to form a solution; occurs only where and when the the solute and solvent particles come in contact with each other |
| Concentration | A quantitive measure of the amount of solute in a given amount of solvent of solution |
