Chapter 4 Flashcards
What is a solution?
Solution is a homogeneous mixture, has uniform composition that consists of two parts.
What are the two types of solution?
Solute and solvent.
Define solute.
A type of solution that dissolves in a larger quantity of another.
Define solvent.
Larger quantity that dissolves the solute.
When does water serve as a solvent?
In aqueous solutions.
How is water polar?
Uneven distribution of electrons and bent molecular shape.
How do ionic compounds dissolve?
Water separates ions in an ionic compound by forming stronger attractions between the ions and water molecules, causing the ions to become solvated.
What is an insoluble substance?
For ions that do not dissolve on water, attraction between cation and ions is greater than attraction with water.
What is an electrolyte?
When I wanna compound dissolve, the solution has electrical conductivity, which is called electrolyte
What is a non-electrolyte?
In polar bonds, water and the compound are attracted to each other. Most covalent compounds don’t break into ions and remain as molecules.
What is the si unit for concentration?
Molarity.
TRUE OR FALSE
Concentration is an intensive property.
True.
Define concentration.
The quantity of solute dissolved in a given quantity of solution.
What is the equation for finding molarity?
Molarity = Mole of Solute

Liters of Solution
What are spectator ions?
ions that appear unchanged on both sides of the equation.
What are net ionic equations?
it eliminates the spectator ions and shows only the actual chemical change.
What is an acid?
A substance that produces positive 𝐻+ ions when dissolved in water.
What is a base?
A substance that produces 𝑂𝐻− ions when dissolved in water.
What are strong acids and bases?
Dissociate completely into ions. They are strong, electrolytes, and conduct a large amount
What are weak acids and bases?
Dissociate very little into ions and our weak electrolytes.
What is an acid Base reaction?
A neutralization reaction.
How does H2O form?
From 𝑂𝐻− and 𝐻+.
What happens in reactions between a strong acid and a strong base, and how is a salt formed?
An H⁺ ion from the acid and an OH⁻ ion from the base form water. Evaporating the water leaves spectator ions that combine to form a salt, with the cation from the base and the anion from the acid.
What happens when an acid reacts with an ionic carbonate?
Carbon dioxide, water and salt.
