SOLUBILITY AND DISTRIBUTION PHENOMENA Flashcards
Concentration of a solute when the solvent has
dissolved all the solute that it can at a given
temperature
SOLUBILITY
Concentration of solute in a saturated solution at a
certain temperature
QUANTITATIVELY
Spontaneous interaction of two or more substances to
form a homogenous molecular dispersion
QUALITATIVELY
are homogeneous mixtures of two or
more pure substances.
Solutions
the solute is dispersed uniformly
throughout the solvent.

The intermolecular forces
between solute and
solvent particles must be
strong enough to
compete with those
between solute particles
and those between
solvent particles.
SOLUTIONS
HOW DOES SOLUTION FORM?
As a solution forms, the solvent pulls solute particles apart and surrounds, or solvates,them.
If an ionic salt is soluble
in water, it is because the
ion-dipole interactions
are strong enough to
overcome the lattice
energy of the salt crystal.
