Test 4 (Chapter 7-8) Flashcards
A stable dispersion of fine particles of one substance in another (not a solution)
Colloids
Light is scattered when attempting to shine through it
Tyndall Effect
Solvent+Solute(s)=?
Solution
A substance present in lesser amount in a solution
Solute
A colloid where Microparticles of one polarity (i.e. non polar) suspended in a liquid of another polarity (i.e. polar)
Emulsions
“water-loving” Polar substance that will dissolve in water
Hydrophilic
“water-fearing” Non-polar substances that won’t dissolve in water
Hydrophobic
At constant temperature, the amount of gas dissolved in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of the has above the liquid
Henry’s Gas Law
Describe how polar ion interact with a polar solvent like water
The molecules of a polar solvent like water are attracted to other polar molecules; Because water molecules are polar, they interact with the sodium and chloride ions.
Examples of nonpolar solvents that would dissolve oil and grease
polarity?
A substance present in greater amount in a solution, measure by number of moles
Solvent
When a solution contains the maximum possible amount of dissolved solute at a given temperature
Saturated Solution
a solution that contains more of the dissolved material than could be dissolved by the solvent under normal circumstances
Supersaturated Solution
Describe how a gas respond to temperature and pressure changes
gases respond to pressure changes by changing their volume
Describe how much of the earth’s water is drinkable?
2.5% (fresh water)
total 70% of water covers the earth’s surface
