States of Matter & Gas LawsDalton's Law of Partial Pressures
The total pressure of a gas mixture equals the sum of the pressures each component would exert alone in the same volume.
Organic ChemistryDiastereomer
A stereoisomer that is not a mirror image of the compound with which it is compared.
Solutions & Colligative PropertiesDilution
The process of reducing a solution's concentration by adding more solvent, leaving the amount of solute unchanged.
Biochemistry & Polymer ChemistryDisaccharide
A carbohydrate formed when two monosaccharide units join through a glycosidic bond.
