Solution Chemistry Flashcards
what terms describes the solubility of a solid or gas in a liquid
soluble and insoluble
what terms describes the solubility of a liquid in a liquid
miscible and immiscible
in what conditions are gases most soluble?
low temp high pressure
when are solid solutions most soluble?
in warm temperatures
alloys
a mixture of two or more metals. ex: sterling silver, brass
amalgam
a solid solution of metals that contains mercury
list things that solubility is dependent upon
temperature, pressure if a gas, chem. nature of the solute/solvent (polarity)
formula for molarity?
moles of solute/liters of solution
percent by mass formula?
mass of solute/mass of solution * 100
percent by volume formula?
volume of solute/volume of solution * 100
parts per million formula
grams of solute/grams of solution * (1x10^8)
colligative properties
- only applied to solutions
- depends only on the ratio between solute and solvent, not the kind of solute
- the more particles in the solution the greater the temperature change
why does the difference between FP and BP increase with the amount of solute added?
because the solute particles decrease vapor pressure and get in the way of the solute’s particles during freezing
formula for change in boiling/freezing point temperature
change in T = ikm, where k is altered for boiling or freezing
what does k (b) mean in the change in BP/FP formulas?
constant for the solute
