Solutions And Their Behavior Flashcards
Solution:
A homogenous mixture that consisted of one or more solutes in a medium (solvent)
(Molarity)
Solvent:
Is present in the larger amount
Molality
Solute:
Is present in the smaller amount than the solvent
Is molality ever equal to molarity?
No
_______ is better when dealing with solution stoichiometry
Molarity
_______ is better when dealing with physical chemistry
Molality
Solubility:
The amount of solute that will dissolve in a given amount of solvent.
Saturation:
A solution that contains the maximum amount of a solute, as defined by its solubility.
Supersaturated:
A solution contains more solute than allowed by the solubility.
Miscible
Two liquids are miscible if they are soluble in each other in all proportions.
Polar solutes are more or less soluble in polar solvents?

Nonpolar solutes are more or less soluble in nonpolar solvents?
