Q

factors affecting rate of solution (solid in liquid)

A
  1. temp –> increased temp, more kinetic energy –> dissolves faster
  2. size –> smaller particles dissolve faster because of more surface area
  3. stirring –> more concentration gradient
  4. already dissolved solute –> less concentration gradient

Q

concentration gradient in rate of solution

A
  • energy transfer is always from high temp to low
  • material temp is always from high concentration to lower concentration
  • the more the gradient, the faster the transfe

Q

solubility in supersaturated solution

A

becomes unstable, crystals form

29
Q

unsaturated solutions

A
  • amount of solute dissolved is less than the solubility at that temperature
  • all solute dissolves completely!!
  • solutions contain less solute than it can hold at a certain temp
30
Q

saturated solution

A
  • maximum amount of solute dissolved at a given solvent at a constant temp
  • solution contains all the solute it can hold at the given temp
  • temp must be stated
31
Q

recrystallization

A

the temperature dependence of solubility is often used to purify crystalline solids

32
Q

supersaturated solutions

A
  • contains more solute than it should theoretically hold it a give temperature
33
Q

how to make a supersaturated solution?

A
  • a sautéed solution at high temperature is allowed to cool while it sits undisturbed
  • as it cools, the solute remains in the solution
  • once it has retuned to room temp, there will be more solute

-> this I san unstable situation
- if a single crystal of solute is added to a supersaturated solution, the excess solute crystallizes out

34
Q
