solutions and their behavior Flashcards
a homogeneous mixture that consists of one or more solutes uniformly dispersed at the molecular or ionic level throughout a medium known as the solvent
solution
solvent
the larger amt
solute
the smaller amt
molality (m) deals with
kg solvent
molarity (M) deals with
L solution
what does it mean if something is saturated
contains the max amt of solute, as defined by its solubility
supersaturated
a solution contains more solute than allowed by the solubility
clinical application for saturated
when gases reach equilibrium
miscible
two liquids are miscible if they are soluble in each other in all proportions
lattice energy (LE)
the energy released when molecules or ions settle into a crystalline lattice. it is inherently exothermic
solvation (hydration) energy (SE)
the energy released when an ion (or molecules) settles into a sphere of solvent molecules
solvation is inherently
exothermic
henrys law
pressure increases, solubility increases. “the amt of nonreacting gas which dissolves in liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas, provided the temp remains constant.
as temp increases, solubility
decreases
in liquid and solid solutes, pressure has ___ effect on solubility
negligible
in liquid and solid solutes as T increases, solubility
increases
the amt of gas dissolved is ___ proportional to the temp
inversely
the colder the liquid, the __ gas that will dissolve in the liquid
more
henry’s law applied to patient
temp has an affect on the amt of gas taken up by the body and how long it takes to wake them back up, particularly if they are cold.
colligative properties of solutions
depends only on the number of solute particles, not the identity of the solute particles
examples of colligative properties
vapor pressure decreasing, boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, osmotic pressure increase
raoult’s law describes
vapor pressure of a solution
as vapor pressure goes down, boiling point goes
up
freezing point depression
lowers the temp at which water freezes (like why we use salt for ice cream or on ice on the roads)
osmosis
diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane
osmotic pressure results from
the potential drive for the concentration of water to equalize.
colloids
not true solutions. large particle size. colloidal particles cannot be filtered and do not settle out of solution.
