new material for final exam Flashcards
Lower solute concentration than normal, water flows into cell, swells and may burst (hemolysis)
Hypotonic
- Don’t donate protons (H+) very readily, only some of the molecules ionize
- Many molecules remain, only a few ions are formed
- Weak electrolytes
Weak Acids
Gain of electrons
Reduction
What uses redox reactions as a power source?
Batteries
Destruction of metals by oxidation reactions
Corrosion
Causes oxidation
Oxidizing Agents
Causes reduction
Reducing agents
The ability of a liquid to form a membrane-like surface and resist spread
Surface Tension
Used to determine concentrations of solutions
Titration
When the number of equivalents of acids and base are equal
Equivalence point
The study of reaction rates
Kinetics
Liquid to gas
Vaporizing/boiling
Reactants hurtling through space and smashing into each other
Collision Theory
A reaction system in which opposing microscopic processes are in balance
Equilibrium
Loss of electrons
Oxidation
Stress an equilibrium system and it will shift to re-establish an equilibrium system
LeChatelier’s Principle
Prevents contact with oxidizing agents as long as the layer is 100% intact
Painting
The pressure of a gas in equilibrium with its liquid
Vapor Pressure
Holding more dissolved solute with solution than should be possible, “overfull” at this temperature, very unusual
Supersaturated
M, moles solute per 1 liter total solution
Molarity
