Chapter 16/17 Vocabulary: Properties of Aqueous Solutions
Question | Answer |
---|---|
aqueous solution | water samples containing dissolved substances |
solute | dissolved particles |
solvent | the dissolving medium |
solution | a homogeneous mixture |
concentration | a measurement of the amount of solute that is dissolved in a given quantity of solute. Usually expressed as mol/L |
dilute solution | contains only a small amount of solute. |
Henry's law | states that at a given temperature the solutbility of a gas in a liquid (S) is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas above the liquid (P). |
immiscible | Liquids that are insoluble in one another. |
miscible | two liquids are said to be this if they dissolve in each other. |
molarity | is the number of moles of a solute dissolved in 1L of solution. |
saturated solution | contains the maximum amount of solute for a given amount of solvent at a constant temperature. |
solutbility | of a substance is the amount of substance that dissolves in a give quantity of a solvent at a give temperature to produce a saturated solution. |
supersaturated solution | a solution which contains more solute than it can theoretically hold at a given temperature. |
insoluble | incapable of being dissolved |
soluble | capable of being dissolved |
unsaturated solution | a solution that contains less solute the the saturated solution. |
