EXP. 4 & 5 Flashcards
Amount of solute that dissolves in a given amount of
solvent to produce a saturated solution.
Solubility
it is a characteristic of a material in which an amount of solute dissolves in a solvent
soluble
a characteristic in which a material do not dissolves in a given solvent
insoluble
The dissolving process of a solid solute
Dissolution
Why some solute are soluble/miscible,
while some are not?
INTERMOLECULAR FORCE OF ATTRACTION
A specific type of mixture
where one substance is
dissolved into another.
Solution
is the same, or
uniform, throughout which
makes it a homogenous
mixture.
Solution
Characteristic of a solution
- It is uniform, or homogenous, throughout the mixture.
- It is stable and doesn’t change over time or settle.
- The solute particles are so small they cannot be separated
by filtering. - The solute and solvent molecules cannot be distinguish by
the naked eye. - It does not scatter a beam of light.
Solubility
* USP
as the number of mL of solvent in which 1 gram of
solute will dissolve at a specified temperature.
Relative Terms for Solubility
Very soluble - Less than 1 part
Freely soluble - 1 to 10 parts
Soluble - 10 to 30 parts
Sparingly soluble - 30 to 100 parts
Slightly soluble - 100 to 1,000 parts
Very slightly soluble - 1,000 to 10,000 parts
Practically insoluble, or insoluble - More than 10,000 parts
a solution in which the amount of
dissolved solute is less than the saturation point of the solvent
Unsaturated solution
solution that contains exactly the
maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in the
corresponding amount of solvent
Saturated solution
a solution that contains more than
the maximum amount of solute that is capable of being
dissolved at a given temperature
Supersaturated solution
Factors Affecting
Solubility
Increase in Surface Area
Stir or Shake
Pressure
Temperature
Polarity
Effect of other Substances:
Addition of a common ion
Addition of salts
Addition of emulsifying agents and surfactants
pH
_____ pieces of a substances dissolve faster
than large pieces.
* ______ allows more solute to
touch the solvent. As a result, there are more
collisions between solute particles and solvent
particles
Small ; Greater surface area
It has negligible effect on
the solubility of solid and
liquid solutes, but it has a
strong effect on solutions
with gaseous solutes.
