Q

acid is a proton donor, and a base is a proton acceptor - For a molecule to behave as an acid, it must encounter a proton acceptor (or base). Likewise, a molecule that can accept a proton behaves as a base if it encounters an acid.

Q

states that the position of an equilibrium always shifts in such a direction as to relieve a stress that is applied to the system
an increase in temperature of a system alters the concentration relationship in the direction that tends to absorb heat, and an increase in pressure favors those participants that occupy a smaller total volume

Q

The analyte is separated from a solution of the sample as a precipitate and is converted to a compound of known composition that can be weighed

A

Precipitation Gravimetry

26
Q

the analyte is separated from other constituents of a sample by converting it to a gas of known chemical composition

A

Volatilization Gravimetry

27
Q

the analyte is separated by deposition on an electrode by an electrical current
The mass of this product then provides a measure of the analyte concentration

A

Electrogravimetry

28
Q

the mass of a reagent of known concentration required to react completely with the analyte provides the information needed to determine the analyte concentration

A

Gravimetric Titrimetry

29
Q

uses a mass spectrometer to separate the gaseous ions formed from the elements making up a sample of matter

A

Atomic Mass Spectroscopy

30
Q

a stable phase showing little tendency to aggregate and separate from the aqueous phase

A

31
Q

composed of particles having large diameters about a tenth of a millimeter or greater

A

Crystalline Suspension

32
Q

is the effect of light scattering in colloidal dispersion while showing no light in a true solution
This effect is used to determine whether a mixture is a true solution or a colloid

A

Tyndall Effect

33
Q

the ratio of the difference of the concentration of the reactants and the solubility of the precipitate to the solubility of the precipitate. Supersaturation ratio is defined as the supply rate of solute Q based on the growth rate in a quasisteady state

A

Relative Super Saturation

34

A

Nucleation
Coalescent Coagulation
Agglomeration

37
Q

is an unstable solution that contains a higher solute concentration than a saturated solution. As excess solute precipitates with time, supersaturation decreases to zero

A

Supersaturated Solution

38
Q

is a process in which a substance (gas, liquid, or solid) is held on the surface of a solid A

42
Q

A

Mother Liquor

45
Q

is a process in which normally soluble compounds are carried out of solution by a precipitate
