Solubility

Question 1

Define dilute

Answer 1

The solution with a relatively small solute compared to the amount of solvent.

Question 2

Define concentrated

Answer 2

Solution with a relatively large amount of solute compared to solvent

Question 3

Define Miscible and Immiscible

Answer 3

Miscible - Liquids mix to form a homogenous solution

Immiscible - Liquids do not mix to form a homogenous solution

Question 4

List some solutions

Answer 4

Brass (Zn and Cu)
Carbonated beverages
Ammonia nitrate - Ice pack

Question 5

List three factors affecting how quickly something dissolves

Answer 5

Stirring
Temperature
Particle size

Question 6

Define dissociation

Answer 6

When ionic compounds break down in solution

Question 7

Define saturated

Answer 7

When the solution has the maximum amount of solute to be dissolved by solvent

Question 8

Define unsaturated

Answer 8

When the solution has less than the maximum amount of solute to be dissolved by the solvent

Question 9

Define supersaturated

Answer 9

When the solution has more the maximum amount of solute to be dissolved by the solvent

Question 10

True or false: all solutes have some solubility in water.

Answer 10

True

Question 11

What are two more factors affecting solubility?

Answer 11

Charges of ions. (Higher charges make it harder to separate)

Size of ions. (Larger ions= larger bonds = easier to separate)
