  1. Solutes, Solvents, Solutions, and Atoms

  2. What is a solution? • A solution is a mixture where the particles making it up are very small and evenly dispersed throughout the mixture • They are made up into two parts: • The Solute • The Solvent

  3. What is a Solute? • A solute is the substance to be dissolved. • This is normally a solid examples can be salt, sugar, Kool aid, or Gator Aid.

  4. What is a Solvent? • The solvent is what does the dissolving. It is the material that breaks the solute down. • Water is known as the universal solvent.

  5. What is an atom? • An atom is a particle that is composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons. • They are the building blocks of all matter.

  6. Electron • A negatively charged particle • Located in the shells surrounding the nucleus • These shells are also called orbits or orbital shells • If you have more electrons then protons within an atom then it is a negatively charged atom

  7. Proton • A positively charged particle • Located in the nucleus along with the neutrons • If you have more protons then electrons within an atom then it is a positively charged atom

  8. Neutron • A neutrally charged particle • Located within the nucleus along with the protons

  9. Nucleus • The center portion of an atom where protons and neutrons are located

  10. Shell • The surrounding portion of an atom going around the nucleus • These are where the electrons are located.

  11. Example of Carbon Atom Model • -Inner most circle is the nucleus • -Two outer circles are shells • Blue dots are electrons • Red dots are protons • Green dots are neutrons
