Solutions
What is a solution?
A homogeneous mixture containing of a solute dissolving into a solvent.
What is a solvent?
The thing that dissolves a substance
Smaller circles
How to remember: Solvent and Dissolve both have “V”
What is a solute?
The thing that is being dissolved
Bigger Circles
What is solubility?
The relative ability to form a solution when a solute is added to a certain solvent. Solutes must be attracted (OooOOoooO~) to solvent. Is defined as max solute you can dissolve in a fixed solvent at a given temp.
What is a concentrated solution?
Contains much solute and very little solvent (Like juice or fruit punch)
Dilute
Contains little solute and much solvent
How to remember: Diluc gets too much Venti
Saturation Point
When no more solute can be dissolved
Unsaturated
WHen more solute can be dissolved
Super Saturated
Can be cooled or heated
What is chemistry the study of?
Matter
What is matter?
Solids, liquids, gas
Six rules of particle theory
1) All matter is made up of tiny particles
2) All particles are in constant motion
3) All particles of one substance look the same
4) Temperature affects the speed of particles
5) Particles are AtTrAcTeD to each other and stay close
6) Particles have space between them
Ways of separating things
- Sieve
- Filter
- Magnet
- Sorting
- Evaporation
- Distillation
What happened during the Deepwater Horizon?
There was an explosion which caused an oil spill in the Gulf Of Nex Mexico which was harmful to the environment
What is gasification?
Turning waste into fuel by vaporizing garbage into particles to be turned into energy sources
