Stuff Flashcards
Solubility
How well a solute can dissolve into a solvent at a specific temperature. Increase in solubility matches with an increase in temperature. And how well they dissolve.
Something that makes something hydrophobic
Polar covalent bonds
Explain physics behind refractometer
Amount of solutes refract the light and it is then measured
Difference between suspension and colloid
Colloids too large to dissolve, too small to come out. Suspension large particles will come out
How to stabilize a colloid
Electrostatic or mechanical and emulsifiers.
How many times more protons are there in a solution of pH5 compared with a solution of pH7?
100x
Nucleation site
Solids are going to form, this is where phase change occurs (when it’s sugars, these solids are called crystals).
Define a buffer as it relates to pH
Buffers resist change in pH/prevent them from occurring.
What is pectin?
It is a carbohydrate, found in the cell walls in a cell, it is the cement that holds cellulose together in the cell walls. A calcium salt needs to be added to form a gel because this is necessary in the formation of ionic bridges.
