| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Heterogeneous Mixture | >2 substances; >2 phases; Not uniform |
| Homogeneous Mixture | AKA solution; 2+ substances in a single phase with uniform composition |
| Solution | A homogeneous mix of 2+ substances in a single phase |
| Solvent | Present in greater amount; Does the dissolving |
| Solute | Present in lesser amount; What is being dissolved |
| Suspension | When particles of a solid are too large to dissolve so they settle |
| Colloid | When particles are too large to dissolve but too small to settle |
| Tyndall Effect | Used to determine the difference between a colloid and a true solution |
| Electrolyte | Dissolve in a solution to produce ions; support electric current; Ionically bonded |
| Non electrolyte | Dissolve in a solution; will NOT produce electric current; Covalently bonded |
| Dissolution | The rate at which a solid dissolves |
| Solubility | A given volume of solvent can't dissolve more solute |
| Saturated Solution | One that has dissolved the max amount of solute for the given T & V |
| Unsaturated Solution | One that is still able to dissolve more solute for a given T & V |
| Supersaturated Solution | One that has been forced to dissolve more than it should for a given T & V |
| Dissociation | The separation of ions in a solution |
| Nonpolar solvent | Dissolve fats, oils, and grease |
| Miscible | 2 or more mutually soluble liquids |
| Immiscible | 2 or more mutually INsoluble liquids |
| Henry's Law | The solubility of a gas in a liq increases w/ increasing P and decreases w/ decreasing P |
| Effervessence | The escape of a gas from a liquid in which it is dissolved (Pop) |
| Exothermic | Released energy, feels hot |
| Endothermic | Absorbed energy, feels cold |
| Concentration | Refers to the amount of solute in a given quantity of solvent |
| Dilute | make a liquid thinner or weaker by adding water or another solvent to it |
| Molarity |
