|
|
Term
| As the temperature of the solvent increases, solvent molecules move faster, and their average kinetic energy increases |
|
Definition
| at higher temps, collisions between the solvent molecules and the solute are more frequent and are of higher energy then at lower temps. this helps separate solute molecules from 1another and to disperse them among the solvent molecules. |
|
|
Term

Definition
| useful rule for predicting whether one substance will dissolve in another. depends on the type of bonding, the polarity or nonpolarity of molecules and the intermolecular forces between the solute and solvent. |
|
|
Term
Dissolving Ionic compounds in aqueous solution
-the polarity of water molecules plays an important role.
-The charged ends of water molecules attract the ions in the ionic compunds and surround them to keep them separated from the other ions in the solution. The attraction between water molecules and the ions is strong enough to draw the ions away from the crystal surface and into solution. |
|
Definition
| As hydrated ions diffuse into the solution, other ions are exposed and are drawn away from the crystal surface by the solvent. The entire crystal gradually dissolves, and hydrated ions become uniformly distributed in the solution. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Solution process with water as the solvent. ions are hydrated. |
|
|
Term
| when crystallized from aqueous solutions, some ionic substances form crystals that incorporate water molecules. these crystalline compounds, known as hydrates, retain specific ratios of water molecules. |
|
Definition
| heating the crystals of a hydrate can drive off the water of hydration and leave the water of hydration returns to the solvent. the behavior of the anhydrous form. dissolving either form results in a system containing hydrated ions and water. |
|
|
Term

|
Definition
|

Term
|
Definition
| liquid solutes and solvents that are not soluble in each other. ex toluene and water |
|
|
Term
| nonpolar substances like fats oils and greases are quite soluble in nonpolar liquids such as gasoline and toluene. |
|
Definition
| the only attractions between the nonpolar molecules are weak London forces. the intermolecular forces exsiting in the solution are very similar to those in pure substances. thus, the molecules can mix freely with 1 another. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Liquids that dissolve freely in 1 another in any proportion. es benzene and carbon tetrachloride |
|
|
Term
| The intermolecular forces in the mixture are so similar to those in the pure liquids that the liquids are mutually soluble in all proportions. |
|
Definition
| ethanol is intermediate in polarity between water and carbon tetrachloride. it is not as good a solvent for polar or ionic substances as water is. sodium chloride is only slightly soluble in ethanol. ethanol is a better solvent than water for less-polar substances because the molecule has a nonpolar region.. |
|
|
Term
| increases in pressure increase gas solubilities in liquids. |
|
Definition
| as the amount of dissolved gas increases, some molecules begin the escape and reenter the gas phase. an equilibirum is evetually established. |
|
|
Term
| INcreasing the pressure of the solute gas above the solutions puts stress on the equilibirum. MOlecules collide with the liquid surfaces more often. the increase in pressure is partially offset by an increase in the rate of gas molecules entering the solution. in turn, the increase in the amount of dissolved gas causes an increas in the rate at which molecules escape from the liquid surface and become vapor. |
|
Definition
| entually, equilibirum is restored at the higher gas solubilty. as espected from Le Chatelier's principle, an increase in gas pressure causes equilibirum to shift so the fewer molecules are in the gas phase |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial presuure of that has on the surface of the liquid. applies to gas-liquid solutions at constant temp. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The rapid escape of a gas from a liquid in which it is dissolved |
|
|
Term
| Increasing the temperature usually decreases gas solubilty. As the temp increases, the average kinetic energy of the molecules in solution increases. A greater number of solute molecules are able to escape from the attraction of solvent molecules and return to the gas phase. |
|
Definition
| At higher temperatures, equilibrium is reached with fewer gas molecules in solution and gases are generally less soluble. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A solute particle that is surrounded by solvent molecules. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The net amount of heat energy absorbed or released when a specific amount of solute dissolves in a solvent. In the gaseous state, molecules are so far apart that there are virtually no intermolecular forces of attraction between them. solute-solute interaction has little effect on the heat of a solution of a gas. |
