1
Q
solute
A

2
Q
solvent
A
the liquid that dissolves the solute
3
Q
solution
A
when a solute dissolves in a solvent
4
Q
soluble

a substance that can dissolve in a solvent
5
Q
insoluble
A
a substance that cannot dissolve in a solvent
6
Q
miscible
A
two liquids that can dissolve into each other
7
Q
immiscible
A
two liquids that cannot dissolve into each other
8
Q
volatile
A
easily turns from a liquid to a gas
9
Q
chemical reactivity of alkanes and alkenes (7)
A
not reactive, low melting and boiling points, volatile, weak intermolecular forces, smelly, don’t conduct heat or electricity, not soluble in water
10
Q
melting and boiling points
A
as the number of carbon atoms increases, and therefore length of chain increases, the melting and boiling point increases.
