Test 3 Flashcards
electrolyte
solution that conducts electricity due to the presence of ions
ionic compounds(salts) form
ions when dissolved
molecules(covalent compounds)
do not form ions in solution
acids form
ions and are electrolytes
solubility
the maximum amount of solute in grams that can be dissolved in 100g of solvent at STP
solubility units
g/100g, M, g/mL
m1v1=
m2v2
molar solubility
maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in 100g of solvent in molarity
ksp(solubility product constant)
equilibrium constant in terms of the product of the ion concentrations at saturation raised to the power of its coefficients
ksp requirements
-temperature dependent
-no units
-can determine from molar solubility
TIP(trial ion product/trial ksp/reaction quotient)
value where ion concentrations are plugged into the equilibrium expression to determine if a precipitate will form
a precipitate will form
TIP>Ksp
no precipitate will form
TIP<Ksp
the solution is saturated
TIP = Ksp
common ion effect
if a solvent contains an ion that is in an ionic compound, the solubility for that compound decreases
