AP Chem term (Ch. 11)
Definition
molarity (M)   moles of solute per kilogram of solvent in a solution.  
🗑
mass percent   the percent by mass of a component of a mixture, or of a given element in a compound.  
🗑
mole fraction   the ratio of the number of moles of a given component in a mixture to the total number of moles in the mixture.  
🗑
molality (m)   the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent in a solution.  
🗑
normality   the number of equivalents of a substance dissolved in a liter of solution.  
🗑
enthalpy (heat) of solution   the enthalpy change associated with dissolving a solute in a solvent; the sum of the energies needed to expand both solvent and solute in a solution and the energy released from the solvent-solute reactions.  
🗑
enthalpy (heat) of hydration   the enthalpy change associated with placing gaseous molecules or ions in water; the sum of the energy needed to expand the solvent and the energy released from the solvent-solute interactions.  
🗑
Henry's law   the amount of gas dissolved in a solution is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas above the solution.  
🗑
thermal pollution   the oxygen-depleting effect on lakes and rivers of using water for industrial cooling and returning it to its natural source at a higher temperature.  
🗑
Raoult's law   the vapor pressure of a solution is directly proportional to the mole fraction of solvent present.  
🗑
ideal solution   a solution whose vapor pressure is directly proportional to the mole fraction of solvent present.  
🗑
colligative properties   properties of a solution that depend only on the number, and not on the identity, of the solute particles (concentration).  
🗑
molal boiling-point elevation constant   a constant characteristic of a particular solvent that gives the change in boiling point as a function of solution molality; used in molecular weight determinations.  
🗑
molal freezing-point depression constant   a constant characteristic of a particular solvent that gives the change in freezing point as a function of the solution molality; used in molecular weight determinations.  
🗑
semipermeable membrane   a membrane that allows solvent but not solute molecules to pass through.  
🗑
osmosis   the flow of solvent into a solution through a semipermeable membrane.  
🗑
osmotic pressure (pi)   the pressure that must be applied to stop osmosis.  
🗑
dialysis   a phenomenon in which a semipermeable membrane allows transfer of both solvent molecules and small solute molecules and ions.  
🗑
isotonic solutions   solutions having identical osmotic pressures.  
🗑
reverse osmosis   the process occurring when the external pressure on a solution causes a net flow of solvent through a semipermeable membrane from the solution of to the solvent.  
🗑
desalination   the removal of dissolved salts from an aqueous solutions.  
🗑
van't Hoff factor   the ratio of moles of particles in solution to moles of solute dissolved.  
🗑
ion pairing   a phenomenon occurring in solution when oppositely charged ions aggregate and behave as a single particle.  
🗑
Tyndall effect   the scattering of light by particles in a suspension.  
🗑
colloid (colloidal dispersion)   a suspension of particles in a dispersing medium.  
🗑
coagulation   the deduction of a colloid by causing particles to aggregate and settle out.  
🗑
