Exam 3 Flashcards
Solution
homogeneous mixture (uniform) of two or more substances
Solute
component of a solution that is present in lesser quality than the solvent
solvent
solution component presented in the largest quality
aqueous solution
when the solvent is water
electrolytes
formed from solutes that are soluble ionic compounds that disassociate in solution to produce ions that behave as charge carriers; they conduct energy
true solution
homogeneous mixture with uniform properties throughout
pure substance
has only one component (ie water)
true substance
has more than one substance; and is homogeneous throughout solution (particles are not large enough to scatter light)
colloidal susbention
has solute particles distributed throughout a solvent; but it is not completely homogeneous **larger particles, not identical, particles participate.
whats the difference between a solution particle and precipitant?
1nm = solution particles
particles larger than 200nm are precipitates
suspension
heterogenous mixture that contains particles much later than colloid suspension (overtime particles settle at bottom and form second phase)
solubility
how much solute can dissolve in a given volume of solvent
what affects the solubility?
- polarity of solute & solvent-like goes with like (more similar the more they dissolve & greater distance, the less soluble the solute)
- temperature- increased temp increased solubility (usually)
- pressure (little affect on solids & liquids)
saturated solute
when a solution contains all the solute that can be dissolved at a particular temperature **increased temp, you can dissolve more- decreased temp it will dissolve less
supersaturated solute
as solute is cooling, the excess solute may remain in a solution only for a portion of time before the excess will fall to the bottom… It is unstable
What is a dynamic equilibrium?
When an excess solute is added to solvent, it begins to dissolve & contains until it establishes a “dynamic equilibrium btwn dissolved and undissolved.
What is Henry’s Law?
equation?
the number of moles of a gas dissolve in a liquid at a given temp to proportionally to the pressure of gas…
-solubility is directly proportional to pressure of gas in atmosphere… temp must stay the same
Equation:
M=kp (at fixed temp)
**solubility increases at lower temp, decreases at higher temp.
concentration:
the amount of solute dissolved in a given amount of solution. Has a profound effect on properties of solution.
- Physical- melting point & boiling point
- Chemical- solution reactivity
How do you calculate the mass to volume percent of a concentration?
concentration= m (amount of solute in g)/ v (amount of solution in mL) X 100 —which will give the percent of concentration
How do you calculate the mass to mass percent of a concentration?
percent of mass/mass = (g solute)/(g of solution) X 100
How do you calculate the parts per thoustand (ppt) and parts per million of a concentration %?
PPT= g solute/g solution X 10 to the third
PPM= g solute/ g solution X 10 to the sixth
Molarity
M = moles of solute/L solution
What is the equation for a dilution?
M1V1=M2V2
what are the 4 colligative properties?
1: Vapor Pressure Lowering
2: Freezing point Depression
3: Boiling point elevation
4: osmotic pressure
