Additional Concepts Flashcards
____________________ is an analytical technique based on the measurement of mass.
Gravimetric Analysis
___________________ measures the acidity or basicity of a solution by comparing it with a standard acid or base solution.
Acid-Base Titrations
What are the steps to be followed when performing Gravimetric Analysis?
- Weigh the sample to be analyzed.
- Dissolve the sample in water.
- Add a suitable chemical to form a precipitate.
- Filter to collect the precipitate.
- Dry and weigh repetitively until a constant mass of precipitate is obtained.
_________ is a common laboratory technique for determining the concentration of a solute.
Titration
TRUE OR FALSE: Solutions don’t conduct electricity because of the free flow of electrons in their structure known as electrolytes.
False, solutions DO conduct electricity due to electrolytes.
____________ are salts or molecules that ionize completely in solution. As a result, these solutions readily conduct electricity.
Electrolytes
Weak acids and weak bases are ________ electrolytes.
weak
_______________ do not dissociate into ions in solution; these solutions do not conduct electricity.
Nonelectrolytes
What law shows that the vapor pressure of a solution is equal to the mole fraction of the solvent multiplied by the vapor pressure of the pure liquid?
Raoult’s Law, by Francois-Marie Raoult (between 1887-1888)
It is a mixture of two or more substances evenly distributed in a single phase.
Solution
A component of a solution; the dissolved substance.
Solute
A component of a solution; the dissolving medium.
Solvent
Solutions are classified according to what 3 things?
I. amount of solute
II. presence of solute in and out of a membrane
III. concentration
A type of solution based on the amount of solute. A ___________ solution contains less amount of solute dissolved in a given solvent.
Unsaturated
A type of solution based on the amount of solute. The amount of solute dissolved in a given amount of solvent is in its maximum.
Saturated
A type of solution based on the amount of solute. It contains more solute than what is present in a saturated solution. The excess solute crystallizes.
Supersaturated
