Chapter 13.6 Flashcards
An aqueous solution that conducts a current because the solute separates into ions as it dissolves
Electrolytes
Soluble salts, strong acids, and strong bases-dissociate completely, so their solutions conduct well
Strong Electrolytes
Weak acids and bases that dissociate very little so their solutions conduct poorly
Weak Electrolytes
Compounds such as sugar and alcohol that do not dissociate into ions at all. They CANNOT conduct a current.
nonelectrolytes
The difference in vapor pressures between the solute and solvent
Vapor pressure lowering (dP)
The “randomness of a system”
Entropy
The law that quantifies what the vapor pressure is with the solvent
Raoult’s Law
Molality (m) equation
(moles of solute)/(KG of solvent)
A membrane that allows solvent, but not solute to go through
Semipermeable membrane
The pressure that must be applied to prevent net movement of water from solvent to solution
Osmotic Pressure
