Question
Answer
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   A solution in which the solvent is water.  
🗑
Freezing Point depression   the difference between the freezing points of a pure solvent and a solution of a nonelectrolyte in that solve; 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   a solution that contains the maximum amount of dissolved solute  
🗑
Unsaturated   a solution that contains less solute than a saturated solution under the existing conditions  
🗑
Supersaturated   a solution that contains more dissolved solute than a saturated solution contains under the same conditions  
🗑
Distillation   a method of separating mixtures based on differences in their volatilities in a boiling liquid mixture.  
🗑
Filtering   a device (usually a membrane or layer) that is designed to physically block certain objects or substances while letting others through.  
🗑
Chromatography   is the collective term for a set of laboratory techniques for the separation of mixtures.  
🗑
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   of the same or similar nature of kind  
🗑
Heterogeneous   not the same  
🗑
Suspension   A system in which microscopically visible particles are dispersed throughout a less dense liquid or gas from which they are easily filtered but not easily settled because of system viscocity or molecular interactions.  
🗑
Colloid   A system in which finely divided particles, which are approximately 10 to 10,000 angstroms in size, are dispersed whitin a continuous medium in a manner that prevents them from being filtered easily or settled rapidly.  
🗑
Disassociation   to remove from association  
🗑
Electrolyte   A chemical compuond that ionizes when dissolved or molten to produce an electrically conductive medium.  
🗑
Nonelectrolyte   A substance whose molecules in solution do not dissociate to ion and thus do not conduct an electric current.  
🗑
Precipitate   to cause a solid substance to be separated from a solution.  
🗑
Ionic equation   A chemical equation in which electrolytes are written as dissociated ions.  
🗑
Molecular equation   A Chemical equation in whichinoic compounds are written as natural.  
🗑
Spectator ion   An ion that serves to balance the electrical charges in a reaction environment without participating in product formation  
🗑
Acid   having a ph of less then 7  
🗑
Base   compounds whose aqueous solutions are characterized bya bitter taste, a slippery feel, the ability to turm litmus blue, and the ability to react with acids to form salts  
🗑
Neutralization   A chemical reaction whereby an acid and a base react to form a salt.  
🗑
Oxidation   The combustion of a substance with oxygen  
🗑
Reduction   a decrease in positive valence or an increase in negitive valence by the gaining of electrons  
🗑
Molarity   The molar concentration of a solution, usually expressed as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution  
🗑
Molality   The molar concentration of a solute, usually expressed as the number of moles of solute per 1000 grams of solvent.  
🗑
Dilution   the process of making weaker or less concentrated  
🗑
Titration   The process, operation, or method of determining the concentration of a substance in solution by adding to it a standard reagent of know concentration in carefully measured amounts until a reaction of definite and known proportion is completed, as shown  
🗑
Concentration   The amount of a specified substance in a unit amount of another substance.  
🗑
