Definitions of aqueous solution
Definition that contains aqueous solution
  • peroxide a viscous liquid with strong oxidizing properties; a powerful bleaching agent; also used (in aqueous solutions) as a mild disinfectant and (in strong concentrations) as an oxidant in rocket fuels
  • hydroiodic acid an acid formed by aqueous solution of hydrogen iodide
  • hydrochloric acid an aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride; a strongly corrosive acid
  • arrhenius theory of dissociation (chemistry) theory that describes aqueous solutions in terms of acids (which dissociate to give hydrogen ions) and bases (which dissociate to give hydroxyl ions); the product of an acid and a base is a salt and water
  • ringer solution an aqueous solution containing the chlorides of sodium and potassium and calcium that is isotonic to animal tissues; used to correct dehydration and (in physiological experiments) as a medium for in vitro preparations
  • eau de javelle an aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite
  • anionic a class of synthetic detergents in which the molecules do not ionize in aqueous solutions
  • theory of electrolytic dissociation (chemistry) theory that describes aqueous solutions in terms of acids (which dissociate to give hydrogen ions) and bases (which dissociate to give hydroxyl ions); the product of an acid and a base is a salt and water
  • hydrogen iodide a colorless gas that yields hydroiodic acid in aqueous solution
  • javel water an aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite
