Q

What will increase the solubility of a gas?

A

Increasing pressure and decreasing temperature

17
Q

How do you make a real gas behave like an ideal gas?

A

Decreasing pressure and increasing temperature

18
Q

Homogeneous

A

Looks the same all throughout

19
Q

How do you see if something’s a gas on Table G?

A

If the line DECREASES

20
Q

How do you see if something’s a solid on Table G?

A

If the line goes up

21
Q

Concentration

A

amount of solute per given amount of solvent

22
Q

Molarity

A

moles of solute per liters of solution

23
Q

Molarity Equation

A

M = moles solute
———————–
liters of solution

24
Q

Units for Molarity

A

M or mol/L

25
Q

Molarity TIPS

A
  • Use liters in denominator (ml / 1000 = L)

* Use moles NOT grams

26
Q

Parts per Million

A

ppm = mass solute
——————— x 1 Million
mass solution

27
Q

PPM and % by Mass TIPS

A

solute / solute + solvent (solution)

*not over solvent! Over solution!

28
Q

Percent by Mass

A

mass solute
——————– x 100
mass solution

29
Q

Dilution

increasing the amount of solvent decreases concentration

A

M1 (V1) = M2 (V2)

  • M = molarity
  • V= volume
30
Q

Freezing Point Depression

A
  • Solutions have lower freezing pts than water

- More solute = lower freezing pt

31
Q

Boiling Point Elevation

A
  • Solutions have higher boiling points than pure water

- More solute = higher boiling pt

32
Q

Ionic vs Covalent Compounds

A

Since ionic compounds dissociate into ions, they create a greater concentration of particles!

33
Q

Factors that Affect Solubility

A
  • Temperature
  • Pressure
  • Nature of solute/solvent
34
Q

Temperature affects solubility

A

Gases
-As temperature ↑, solubility ↓
Solids
-As temperature ↑, solubility ↑

35
Q

Pressure affects solubility

A
  • ONLY AFFECTS GASES!

- As pressure ↑, solubility ↑

36
Q

Nature of Solute/Solvent

A
