Unit 10: Solutions, Acids And Bases Flashcards
Solute
The substance that is dissolved
Solvent
Does the dissolving
Universal solvent
Water
If a solution is made up of two liquids the solute is….
The lesser quantity
Electrolyte
A solution that conducts electricity when dissolved in water; great conductor of electricity
Dissociation
The process when charged particles in an ionic compound separate from one another
Like dissolves like
Predicting whether two compounds are soluble; the polarity of a substance
A salt will dissolve faster if….
Stirred or shaken
Smaller particles
Temperature increase
Solubility
The maximum amount of substance that will dissolve at that temperature
Unsaturated
When the amount of solute dissolved is less than the maximum that can be dissolved
Saturated
A solution that holds the maximum amount of solute
Supersaturated
A solution that contains more than the maximum amount of solute it can hold
Seed crystal
When a supersaturated solution cannot hold any more of the solute and the solute is released
Miscible
Two liquids can dissolve each other
Immiscible
When two liquids cannot dissolve each other
Concentration
A measure of the amount of solute dissolved in a certain amount of solvent
Concentrated solution
Has a large amount of solute
Dilute solution
Has a small amount of the solute
Molarity
The number of moles of solute in 1 liter of the solution
Arrhenius Acid
A substance that produces hydronium ions when dissolved on water
Arrhenius Base
A substances that produces hydroxide ions when dissolved in water
Monoprotic Acid
Have only 1 ionizable hydrogen
Polyprotic Acids
More than one ionizable acids
Bronsted-Lowry Acid
A proton DONOR
