Chapter 4 Flashcards
a homogeneous mixture
solution
the component that is dissolved
solute
the component that does the dissolving
solvent
substance that dissolved in water produces a solution that conducts electricity
-contains ions
electrolyte
substance that dissolved in water produces a solution that does not conduct electricity
nonelectrolyte
ionic compounds separate into constituent ions when dissolved in solution
dissociation
formation of ions by molecular compounds when dissolved
ionization
100% dissociation
-al water soluble ionic compounds, strong acids and strong bases
strong electrolyte
- partially ionized in solution
- exist mostly as the molecular form in solution
- weak acids and weak bases
weak electrolyte
(formation of a solid from two aqueous solutions) occurs when product is insoluble
- produce insoluble ionic compounds
- double replacement (or metathesis reaction)
precipitation
is the maximum amount of a solid that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specified temperature
-prediction based on solubility rules
solubility
process by which water molecules remove and surround individual ions from the solid
hydration
shows all compounds represented by their chemical formulas
molecular equation
shows all strong electrolytes as ions and all other substances (non-electrolytes, weak electrolytes, gases) by their chemical formulas
ionic equation
shows only the reacting species in the chemical equation
-eliminates spectator ions
net ionic equation
produces H+ in solution
arrhenius acid
produces OH- in solution
Arrhenius base
proton donor
bronsted acid
proton acceptor
bronsted base
one ionizable hydrogen
monoprotic
two ionizable hydrogens
diprotic
three ionixable hydrogens
triprotic
generic term meaning more than one ionizable hydrogen
polyprotic
one OH- group
monobasic
two OH- groups
dibasic
reaction between an acid and a base
neutralization
reactions
-one element undergoes both oxidation and reduction
disproportionation
reactions
-common example, hydrocarbon fuel reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water
combustion
is the amount of solute dissolved in a given amount of solvent
concentration
higher ratio of solute to solvent
concentrated
smaller ratio of solute to solvent
dilute
is the ratio of moles solute per liter of solution
molarity
process of preparing a less concentrated solution from a more concentrated one
dilution
- mass analysis
- ex: precipitation reaction
gravimetric analysis
- volume analysis
- ex:titration
volumetric analysis
addition of a solution of known concentration (standard solution) to another solution of unknown concentration
titration
the determination of the exact concentration of a solution
standardization
represents completion of the reaction
equivalence point
where the titration is stopped
endpoint
used to signal the endpoint
indicator
