Solutions Flashcards
1
Q
Non-electrolytes
A
Aqueous solutions that don’t conduct electricity
- mostly molecular compounds
- acids are an aception*
2
Q
Definition of solutions
A
HOMOgeneous mixtures
Ex.
-water
-alcohol
Uniform consistency
If their cloudy they are heterogeneous
3
Q
Endothermic
A
BREAKS EXISTING BONDS
uses energy as a reactant
Measured as a temperature increases
4
Q
Exothermic
A
FORMING NEW BONDS
produces energy as a product
Measures as a temperature increases
5
Q
Definition of acids
A
Acids are substances that ionize in aqueous solutions to form hydrogen ions
6
Q
Definition of bases
A
Based are substances that dissociate to form hydroxide ions on aqueous solutions
7
Q
Electrolytes
A
Aqueous solutions that conduct electricity
-mostly IONIC compounds with HIGH SOLUBILITY
