Q

suspensions

A

if the particles in a solvent are so large that they settle out unless the mixture is constantly stirred or agitated (sand and flour in water)

Q

solvated

A

a solute particle that is surrounded by solvent molecules

17
Q

concentration

A

measure of the amount of a substance (solute) in a mixture or a solution

18
Q

molality

A

the concentration of solution expressed in moles of solute per kilogram of solvent
moles solute/Kg solvent

19
Q

molarity

A

the number of moles of solute on one liter of solution
moles solute/L solution

20
Q

Tyndall effect

A

when light is shined through a solution, the light passes clearly through the solution. when light is passed through a colloidal solution, the substance in the dispersed phase scatters the light in all directions.

21
Q

Factors affecting the rate of dissolution:

A

increase of surface area of solute
stirring or shaking (agitating the solution),
increase temperature (heating the solvent)

22
Q

solute equilibrium

A

the physical state in which the opposing processes of dissolution and crystallization of a solute occur at equal rates.
