Solutions

Question 1

special type of homogenous mixture. their particle sizes are smaller than that of colloids and suspensions

Answer 1

solution

Question 2

components of solution

Answer 2

solvent and solute

Question 3

solution component with greatest quantity;

determines the state of matter of the solution

Answer 3

solvent

Question 4

solution component that is dissolved in the solvent/water

Answer 4

solute

Question 5

types of solution

Answer 5

unsaturated - saturated - supersaturated

Question 6

a solution in which more solute can still be dissolved in the water

Answer 6

unsaturated solution

Question 7

solution where the solvent has dissolved the maximum amount of solute

can’t dissolve any more solute

Answer 7

saturated solution

Question 8

a solution which is more concentrated than a saturated solution

if you add more solute to the saturated solution and nothing precipitates

becomes unstable, crystals form

Answer 8

supersaturated solution

Question 9

formula for molarity (M)

Answer 9

M = moles of solute/liters of solution

Question 10

formula for molality (m)

Answer 10

m = moles of solute/kg of solvent

Question 11

mole fraction (Xi)

Answer 11

Xi = moles of componenti/moles of all components
