Solubility

Question 1

what is diffusion?

Answer 1

The process in which particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Question 2

dies diffusion occur in liquids?

Answer 2

yes but it is slower

Question 3

what us solubility?

Answer 3

solubility is the ability of a substance to dissolve.

Question 4

what is dissolving?

Answer 4

Where particles un a substance are pulled from each other and fit between the solvent molecules.

Question 5

the substance being dissolved

Question 7

give an example of a solvent

Answer 7

water

Question 8

give an example of a solute

Answer 8

salt

Question 9

what is a solution?

Answer 9

the solute has dissolved into the solvent.

Question 10

What does it mean when the solvent is saturated?

Answer 10

It can’t hold anymore solute. You can see the solute when the solvent is saturated.

Question 11

What happens to a solid when the temperature increases?

Answer 11

it becomes more soluble

Question 12

what does it mean if a substance is soluble?

Answer 12

the solvent is able to dissolve

Question 13

what does it mean is a substance is insoluble?

Answer 13

the solvent is unable to dissolve

Question 14

what unit is solubility values measures in?

Answer 14

g/100g of water

Question 15

what happens if your given 50g of solvent?

Answer 15

double the mass of the solute

Question 16

how can you calculate the solubility from the masses of solid and water?

Answer 16

solubility = mass of solid (g) / mass of water removed(g) x 100
