Test 1 Flashcards
Solution
A mix where solute is uniformly dispersed in solvent
Solute
Minority Component
Solvent
Majority Component
Solution = (mathematically)
Solute + Solvent
Aqueous Solution
Solvent is in water
Solubility
The amount of solute that will dissolve in a specific amount of solvent.
Saturated Solution
A solution that will not allow any more solute to dissolve
Unsaturated Solution
More solute is able to dissolve in the solute
Supersaturated solution
More solute is dissolved than is normally able.
Miscible
Two or more liquids that are soluble in each other in any proportions.
Immiscible
Two or more liquids that do not mix completely
Soluble (molarity)
> .1 M
Insoluble or slightly soluble
<.1M
Enthalpy (defn)
The sum of the internal energy and thermodynamic potential ( energy + pressure * change in volume) = change in temp at constant pressure.
Entropy
Measure of disorder or randomness
What conditions favor spontaneously occurring reactions
Exothermic reaction or a high degree of entropy increased.
Name the types of IMF from weakest to strongest
London/dispersion, dipole-dipole, h-bonding, ion-dipole
What are the polarity generalizations for carbon chain compounds?
Less than three carbons–> can be polar
More than three carbons –> not polar, even with OH
Steps of solution formation
Solute particles separate (endothermic)
Solvent particles separate (endothermic)
Solvent and solute mix (usually exothermic)
DELTA H solution =
-DELTA H crystal lattice + DELTA H hydration
Equilibrium
Processes that go forwards and backwards
Equilibrium in chemical reactions
Reached when the net concentrations of products and reactants no longer change
Dynamic equilibrium in solutions
Particles cycle in and out of the solution and the precipitate
What affect does a raise in temperature have on solid’s solubility
Increases in most cases (not NaCl)
What affect does pressure have on solid’s solubility in liquid.
“None”
