Solutions

        Help!  

Term
Definition
homogeneous   a gas, aqueous or solid mixture with the same or uniform composition  
🗑
heterogeneous   you can see the separate components of the mixture  
🗑
solvent   the substance in a solution present in the greatest amount  
🗑
solute   the smaller portion of a solution that dissolves in a solvent  
🗑
aqueous   Water-based  
🗑
solubility   maximum amount of solute that will dissolve in a given quantity of solvent at a specific temperature. It is a quantifiable physical property (eg. 2g will dissolve in 100 g)  
🗑
saturated   a solution cannot dissolve any more solute  
🗑
supersaturated   a very unstable solution that contains more dissolved solute than a saturated one at the same temperature  
🗑
Hydrogen bond (HB)   force of attraction between a partially charged hydrogen dipole and a partially negatively dipole  
🗑
Ion-dipole (ID)   force of attraction between a fully-charged ion and a partially charged dipole  
🗑
Dipole-Dipole (DD)   force of attraction between two partially charged (but opposite) dipoles  
🗑
London Dispersion Forces (LD)   force of attraction between a momentary positive dipole and a momentary negative dipole on any atom or molecule  
🗑
hydration shell   when the polar water molecule surrounds ions or other polar molecules causing them to dissolve  
🗑
Concentration   is the quantity of solute per unit quantity of solvent, expressed as a percent, in parts per million (or billion) or as moles per litre  
🗑
standard solution   a solution with a known concentration  
🗑
dissociation   occurs when ionic compounds break apart into component ions when dissolved in solution  
🗑
Arrhenius Acids   ionize in water to produce one or more hydrogen ions  
🗑
Arrhenius Bases   dissociate in water to produce one or more hydroxide ions  
🗑
Acid-Base Indicators   weak acids that have a characteristic colour at certain pH values  
🗑
strong acids or bases   100% of the H+ ions (as in acids) or OH- ions (as in bases) dissociate completely in water  
🗑
Concentrated   a solution that contains a great deal of solute  
🗑
Dilute   a solution that contains a small amount of solute  
🗑
Titration   an analytical chemistry technique used to find an unknown concentration of an acid or base solution  
🗑
pH   is a measure of the strength (concentration, in mol/L) of the hydrogen ion. Every 1 increase in pH also means a ten-fold increase in hydroxide ion concentration and a ten-fold decrease in hydrogen ion concentration..  
🗑
weak acids or bases   less than 2% of the H+ ions (as in acids) or OH- ions (as in bases) dissociate in water  
🗑
equivalence point   the point in a neutralization when the # of moles of acid equals the # of moles of base (according to the balanced equation)  
🗑
end point   moment during a titration when the indicator shows a permanent colour change; should be 1 drop more than equivalence pt  
🗑
Bronsted-Lowry Acid   a proton donor  
🗑
Bronsted-Lowry Base   a proton acceptor  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
