Aqueous Solution Vocabulary
| Vocabulary Word | Definition |
|---|---|
| Solute | The substance dissolved in a solution |
| Solvent | the dissolving medium in a solution |
| Solution | a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances in a single phase |
| Aqueous | dissolved in water |
| Freezing Point depression | The difference between the freezing points of a pure solvent and a solution of a nonelectrolyte in that solvent; is directly proportional to the molal concentration of the solution |
| Boiling Point elevation | the difference between the boiling point of a pure solvent and a nonelectrolyte of that solvent, directly proportional to the molal concentration of the solution |
| Saturated | contains the maximum amount of dissolved solute |
| Unsaturated | contains less solute that a saturated solution under the existing conditions |
| Supersaturated | contains more dissolved solute than a saturated solution contains under the same conditions |
| Distillation | the purification or concentration of a substance |
| Filtering | removing by using an object that removes impurities or other substances from a certain substance |
| Chromatography | the separation of mixtures into their constituents by preferential adsorption by a solid, as a column of silica or a strip of filter paper |
| Solubility | the amount of a substance required to form a saturated solution with a specific amount of solvent at a specified temperature |
| Mixture | a blend of two or more kinds of matter, each of which retains its own identity and properties |
| Homogeneous | having a uniform composition throughout |
| Heterogeneous | not having a uniform composition throughout |
| Suspension | a mixture in which the particles in the solvent are so large that they settle out unless the mixture is constantly stirred or agitated |
| Colloid | a mixture consisting of particles that are intermediate in size between those in solutions and suspensions forming mixtures known as colloid dispersions |
| Dissociation | the separation of ions that occurs when an ionic compound dissolves |
| Electrolyte | a substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that conducts electric current |
| Nonelectrolyte | a substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that does not conduct an electric current |
| Precipitate | a solid that is produced as a result of a chemical reaction in solution and that separates from the solution |
| Ionic equation | equations that show only the soluble, strong electrolytes reacting and omit the spectator ions |
| Molecular equation | An equation with all of the elements given including the spectator ions. |
| Spectator ion | an ion that does not take part in a chemical reaction and is found in solution both before and after the reaction |
| Acid | a compound containing hydrogen that can be replaced by a metal or an form a salt, or containing an atom that can accept a pair of electrons from a base. |
| Base | a group or molecule that takes up or accepts protons; a compound that reacts with an acid to form a salt, as ammonia, calcium hydroxide, or certain nitrogen-containing organic compounds. |
| Neutralization | the reaction of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions to form water molecules |
| Oxidation | a reaction in which the atoms or ions of an element experie electropositive group tonce an increase in oxidation state |
| Reduction | a reaction in which the oxidation state of an element decreases |
| Molarity | the number of moles of solute in one liter of solution |
| Molality | the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent |
| Dilution | The act of reducing the concentration of a mixture or solution |
| Titration | the controlled addition and measurement of the amount of a solution of known concentration required to react completely with a measured amount of a solution of unknown concentration |
| Concentration | a measure of the amount of solute in a given amount of solvent or solution |
