Sollutions Flashcards
Solution
A homogeneous mixture containing 2 or more substances
Dissolve
Physical intersection of one type of particle in the spaces between another particle, in a regular patterned manner. Considered a physical change
Solute
A substance in a solution present in a smaller amount than the other substance
Solvent
The substance in a solution present in the greatest amount
Solubility
The maximum amount of a solute that can be dissolved in a solvent at a particular temperature
Saturated solution
Solution which is no more solute can be dissolved at that temp often has undissolved solute sitting at the bottom of the container
Unsaturated solution
Solution in which more then the maximum amount of solute for that temp has been dissolved in the solvent. Very un stable
Super saturated solution
Solution in which more then the maximum amount of solute for that temp has been dissolved in the solvent very un stable
Soluble
Solutes are considered soluble in a solvent if at least 10 grams will dissolve in 100 mL
Insoluble
If less than 1 g of solute will dissolve in 100mL
Miscible
Two liquids which can mix homogeneous in any proportion
Immiscible
Two liquids which do not mix homogeneously rather they separate into two distinct layers when mixed
Factors that affect how quickly a solid dissolves in a liquid
Temperature
Stirring
Surface area
Factors that affect whether a solid will dissolve in a liquid or not
Particle size
Particle type- particles that have charges or particle charges are dissolved well by solvents that have particle charges. Particles w/o charges are dissolved well by solvents that do not have charges
Temperature
Factors that affect the solubility of gasses in liquids
Pressure- more pressure more gas can be dissolved in liquid
Temperature
