3. Key Concept Two
• Pure Substances: one component. For
more info: definition of pure substance
• Mixture: two or more substances. For
more information: definition of mixture
• Solutions: can be heterogeneous or
homogeneous. For more information:
definition of solutions

4. Key Concept Three
• Solute and solvent:
• a solute is the substance that is
dissolved
• a solvent does the dissolving
• For more information: explanation of
solute and solvent with picture

5. Key Concept Four
• Solubility: the amount of solute that can
be dissolved in a solvent
• Saturation points: the point at which
the solvent can hold no more solute
• For more information: Solubility and
saturation explanation

6. Key Concept Five
• Particle Model of Matter: Explains the
states of matter (solid, liquid, gas)
• For more information: Explanation and
pictoral representation of Particle Model of
Matter

7. Key Concept Six
• Properties of Fluids: Fluids have many
properties. To see some examples:
Properties of fluids examples

8. Key Concept Seven
• Viscosity: the thickness of a liquid
• Viscosity and flow rate: the viscosity of
a liquid can affect how the liquid flows.
For more information: viscosity and flow
rate

9. Key Concept Eight
• Mass: is equal to density X volume
• Density: is equal to mass / volume
• Volume: is equal to mass / density
• Density Triangle

10. Key Concept Ten
• Pressure: The Force per Unit Area. For
more information: Pressure

11. Key Concept Eleven
• Buoyancy: Archimide’s Principle: A
solid object will sink in a fluid, if it’s
density is greater than the fluid’s
density, and will float if it’s density is
smaller. For more information: Buoyancy
