Unit 8 Test Flashcards
What are the properties of water and how do they relate to hydrogen bonding?
It has high surface tension, and low vapor pressure, freezes into a honeycomb shape, is a universal solvent, has a high boiling point, and has a high specific heat capacity.
What is the Tyndall effect?
the scattering of light by particles
What is Brownian motion?
the random motion of particles
What’s a solution?
Solute+Solvent, homogenous, particles less than 1nm
What are suspensions?
can see them and are bigger than 1000 nm
What are colloids?
between 1 nm and 1000 nm
A colloidal dispersion of a liquid in a liquid (mayo)
emulsion
What is a solvent?
dissolves solute
What is a solute?
the stuff being dissolved
saturated
can’t dissolve anymore/contains max of solute for solvent
unsaturated
contains less solute than a saturated solution
supersaturated
contains more solute then theoretically could be held at given temperature
property that depends on the number of solute particles, not identity
colligative property
What are the three colligative properties of solutions?
Vapor Pressure lowering, freezing point depression, boiling point elevation
What effect does the solute have on Vapor pressure?
solute particles reduce the number of free solvent particles able to escape the liquid.
What effect does the solute have on Freezing point depression?
the magnitude of freezing point depression is proportional to the number of solute particles dissolved.
What effect does the solute have on Boiling point elevation?
the magnitude of boiling point elevation is proportional to the number of solute particles dissolved in solvent.
What are the factors that determine how fast a substance dissolves?
stir it up, heat it up, beat it up
How many particles are in the following
C6H12O6
Na2SO4
KNO3
1
3
2
What does it mean to beat it up?
break into smaller particles so that there is more surface area
