Solution
It's not a problem, it's a solution!
Question | Answer |
---|---|
What type of mixture is a solution? | Homogeneous |
What does "dissolve" mean? | To spread out or mix in |
When salt is dissolved into water, where does the salt go? | It fills the spaces found between each of the water molecules |
What does solubility measure? | The ability of a substance to dissolve |
When something CAN dissolve, we say it is? | Soluble |
When something can NOT dissolve, we say it is? | Insoluble |
What are the 2 parts of every solution? | Solute & Solvent |
Which part of a solution is there more of? | Solvent |
Which part of a solution is there less of? | Solute |
Which part of a solution is STIRRED INTO something? | Solute |
Which part of solution allows matter MIXED INTO IT? | Solvent |
Which part of a solution is DISSOLVED? | Solute |
Which part of a solution does the dissolving? | Solvent |
How much solute does a DILUTE solution dissolve? | Very little |
How much solute does a CONCENTRATED solution dissolve? | A lot |
What are 3 things you could do a solution in order to increase the rate at which the solute dissolves? | 1. Stir it 2. Increase the temperature 3. Increase surface area |
How can you increase the surface area? | Crush it up |
What is the universal solvent? | Water |
Why is water the universal solvent? | Its the solvent most commonly used |
how would you classify a solution that has dissolved more solute than it normally can at a given temperature? | Supersaturated |
How would you classify a solution that can not dissolve any more solute at a given temperature? | Saturated |
How can you tell when a solution is saturated? | No more solute can dissolve |
What will happen to any extra solute you add to a saturated solution? | It will sink to the bottom and NOT dissolve |
How would you classify a silute solution? | unsaturated |
What happens to the amount of solute able to dissolve as the solvents temperature increases? | Increases |
Why will more solute dissolve at greater temperatures? | As the waters temperature increases, the atoms move faster and spread farther apart, making more spaces for the solute to dissolve. |
