Chapter 7 Soultions Flashcards
Emulsion
Any mixture of two or more Immiscible liquids in which one liquid is dispersed in the other
Solution
A homogenous mixture of two or more substances uniformly dispersed throughout a single phase
Colloid
A mixture consisting of tiny particles that are intermediate in size between those in solutions and those in suspensions and that are suspended in a liquid, solid, and gas
Suspension
A mixture in which particles of a material are more or less evenly dispersed throughout a liquid or gas
Solute
In a solution the substance that dissolves in the solvent
Solvent
In a solution the substance in which the solute dissolves
Alloy
A solid or liquid mixture of two or more metals
Heterogeneous mixture
mixture that composes of components that aren’t uniform
Decanting
Poring a lighter liquid off of a heavier liquid
Immiscible
When two liquids separate in which means they do not mix
Tyndall effect
Scattering of light
Polar compound
A molecule that has an uneven distribution of electrons
Hydrogen bonding
The intermolecular force occurring when a hydrogen atom that is bonded to a highly electronegative atom of one molecule is attracted to two unshared electrons of another molecule
Nonpolar compound
A compound whose electrons are equally distributed among its atoms
Solubility
The maximum amount of a solute that will dissolve in a given quantity of solvent at a given temperature and pressure
Concentration
The amount of a particular substance in a given quantity of a mixture, solution, or ore
Unsaturated solution
A solution that contains less solute than a saturated solution does and that is able to dissolve additional solute
Saturated solution
A solution that cannot dissolve any more solute under given conditions
Supersaturated solution
A solution that holds more dissolved solute than is required to reach equilibrium at a given temperature
Molarity
An expression of the concentration of a solution in moles of dissolved solute per liter of solution
Insoluble
They do not dissolve in water
Soluble
Dissolve easy in water
Dilute
No info about the actual quantity of solute dissolved in a solution
