Solutions
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| What property of all ionic compounds make them electrolytes? | they dissociate into ions |
| What would you do to reduce the solubility of gas solute in a gas/liquid solution? | reduce the partial pressure of the gas above the solution |
| Tyndall Effect | separation of light as it passes through colloid or suspension |
| Solute | substance in lesser quantity that is dissolved |
| Emulsion | a colloid of a liquid in a liquid |
| Electrolyte | ionic compounds that dissolve into solution and conducts electricity |
| Alloy | homogeneous mixtures of metals |
| Immiscible | describes liquids that are insoluble in one another |
| Saturated Solution | solution containing maximum amount of solute |
| Supersaturated Solution | solution containing more solute than can theoretically dissolve at a given temperature |
| Colloid | heterogeneous mixture in which particles cannot be separated by filtration |
| Polar | molecules with uneven distribution of charge |
| Solvent | dissolving medium, the substance in greater quantity |
| Aqueous Solution | homogeneous mixture of water and dissolved substances |
| Solvation | solute ions or molecules are surrounded by solvent molecules |
| Tincture | homogeneous mixture of dissolved particles in alcohol |
| Solution | homogeneous mixture of solute and solvent |
| Solute + Solvent = | solution |
| Solvent-Solvent | energy absorbed |
| Solute-Solute | energy absorbed |
| Solvent-Solute | energy released |
| Dissociation | separation of an ionic solid into aqueous ions |
| Ionization | breaking apart of some polar molecules into aqueous ions |
| Dispersion | molecules stay intact |
| Two substances with similar IMF | are likely to be soluble in one another |
| Non-Polar molecules are soluble in | non-polar solvents |
| Ionic compounds are more soluble | in polar solvents |
| How do we know ions are present in aqueous solutions? | electrolytes |
| Non-electrolytes | some compounds dissolve in water but do not conduct electricity |
| Unsaturated Solution | when the solvent holds less solute than it normally can at a given temperature |
| Solubility | the maximum amount of solute that will dissolve in a given quantity of solvent at a specific temperature |
| Concentration | the amount of solute in a solution |
| More solute, constant amount of solvent | more concentrated |
| Less solute | less concentrated |
| More solvent | less concentrated |
| Less solvent | more concentrated |
| Dilution | the procedure for preparing a less concentrated solution from a more concentrated solution |
| 3 Factors Affecting Solubility | the size of the solute/crystals the temperature of the solvent the vigor and duration of stirring |
| Henry's Law States That | the solubility of a gas in a liquid is proportional to the pressure of the gas over the solution |
| Henry's Law | c=kP |
| c | concentration(M) of the dissolved gas |
| k | a constant for each gas (mol/L x atm) that depends only on temperature |
| P | pressure of the gas over the solution |
| The solubility of gases | decreases at higher temperatures |
| Colligative Properties | are properties of solutions that depend on the ratio of the number of solute particles to the number of solvent molecules in a solution, and not on the nature of the chemical species present |
