Term | Definition |

In saline, what is water solvent or solute? | Solvent |
Water is described as a polar molecule because it has: | A partial positive and partial negative end |
The bond between a water molecule's oxygen atom and the hydrogen atoms of another water molecule is known as: | Hydrogen bond |
A non-polar molecule is: | unlikely to dissolve in water AND uncharged |
Fourteen-karat gold is: | An alloy, a solution, and a mixture of two solids |
The unit most useful for measuring the particle size of a colloid is the: | Nanometer |
One of the simplest ways to increase the dissolving rate of a spoonful of sugar in a cup of water is to: | Stir in the water |
If you decrease the temperature what happens to the dissolving rate of NaCl in water? | The dissolving rate decreases because solids dissolve best in higher temperatures |
Suppose you crushed an antacid tablet before dissolving it in a glass of water. The crushed antacid tablet would: | Dissolve more quickly than a whole antacid tablet |
If large amounts of hot water are released from a power plant or factory into a lake: | The amount of dissolved oxygen in that part of the lake will decrease |
Timed-released medicine improves the delivery of medicine to the body by using different: | Dissolving rates |
Children's vitamins are usually chew able. Why is it a good idea to make vitamins chew able? | Chewing increases surface area, which increases the dissolving rate of the tablet |
A neutral solution has a pH of: | 7 |
Most plants prefer slightly acidic soil within the pH range of: | 6.5 to 7.0 |
The chemical formula for a hydronium ion is: | H3o |
Heartburn, often caused by overeating, is a condition caused by excess: | Stomach acid in the esophagus |
As the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) builds up in your bloodstream: | Your blood pH decreases and your breathing rate decreases |
Hydrogen ions: | Are represented as H+ |
Solution A has a pH of 6. Solution B has a pH of 8. What is true about these solutions? | Mixing equal amounts of these solutions would produce a neutral solution |
What are the elements necessary to be present for hydrogen bonding to occur? | N, O, F |
An example of a nonpolar material is: | Methane |
The shape of water is: | Tetrahedral or bent |
The formula for concentration is: | Solute/solution |
When you shine light through a liquid and the light scatters this is called: | Tyndell effect |
pH stands for: | Power of Hydrogen |
What are the 3 elements found in hydrogen bonding? | Oxygen, nitrogen and Florine |
What happens to the pH of your blood when hold your breath? | the pH goes down and becomes more acidic |
What happens to the pH of your blood when you hyperventilate | the pH goes up and becomes more alkaline |
What protects your body from the acid in your stomach? | the mucous in your stomach |
What does acid do to blue litmus paper? | Acid turns blue litmus paper red |
What does an alkaline do to red litmus paper? | A base turns red litmus paper blue |
Feels slippery, Acid or Base? | base |
tastes sour, Acid or Base? | acid |
low pH, Acid or Base? | acid |
bitter taste, Acid or Base? | base |
baking soda, Acid or Base? | base |
vinegar, Acid or Base? | acid |
ammonia, Acid or Base? | base |
bleach, Acid or Base? | base |
produces OH, Acid or Base? | base |
produces H3O, Acid or Base? | acid |
Reacts with metals to produce hydrogen gas, Acid or Base? | acid |
can be corrosive, Acid or Base? | both |
What temperatures do gases dissolve best in? | low temperature |
what temperatures do solids dissolve best in? | high temperatures |
insoluable means | does not dissolve |
positive for tyndall effect | colloids and suspensions |
negative for tyndall effect | solution |
alloy for karat gold | gold and copper |
amalgam made of | mercury (Hg) and silver (Ag) |
Brass made of | Zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) |
Steel made of | iron (Fe) and carbon (C) |
purpose for using an alloy | combining 2 elements has better properties than each of the individual elements by themselves |
Like dissolves Like | polar dissolves polar and non-polar dissolves non-polar |
positive end of the water molecule | the oxygen end of the water molecule |
reason for negative end of the water molecule | unshared pair of electrons |
methane, Polar or Nonpolar? | nonpolar |
water, Polar or Nonpolar? | polar |
ammonia, Polar or Nonpolar? | polar |
pH of H3O concentration of 10-4 | pH 4 |
in the presence of an acid what is water, acid or base? | water acts as a base |
in the presence of an alkaline, what is water, acid or base? | water acts as an acid |
reason fish stay in cooler water during hot weather | more oxygen dissolved in cooler water than warm water |
