Solubility Flashcards
Saturated solution
A saturated solution is a solution in which no more solid will dissolve at particular temperature
Solubility
solubility is the mass of solid that will saturate 100 g of water (or solvent) at a particular temperature
Water physical properties
colourless liquid
melting point - 0°C
boiling point - 100°C
what is water used as a solvent in
drinks
washing
What happens to solubility of solids as the temperature increases
As temperature increases, solubility of solids increase
What happens to solubility of gases as the temperature increases
As temperature increases, solubility of gases decrease
Kinetic theory of dissolving
The particles in the solute become separated from each other and mixed up with the solvent particles
How to calculate solubility
Mass of solute
——————— x 100
Mass of solvent
Solvent
The liquid in which the solute dissolves
Solute
A soluble substance which dissolves
Solution
A mixture of a solute dissolved in a solvent
Insoluble
A substance that will not dissolve in a particular solvent
