Term
Molarity (State general equation)
Definition

The number of moles of solute in a liter of solution.

 

M=n/L

 

M= molarity;

n = moles;

L = liters

Term
Solute
Definition

The substance dissolved in another (solvent).

Salt is the solute in salt water.

Term
Solvent
Definition

A substance, usually a liquid, into which another substance (solute) is dissolved.

Water is the solvent in iced tea.

Term
Solution (Give an example)
Definition

A liquid, gas, or solid phase containing two or more components uniformly dispersed.

 

e.g. air, coffee, saltwater

Term
Calculate the molarity when 5 moles of NaCl is dissolved in 25 liters of water.
Definition

M = n/L

 

M = 5/25

M = 0.2M

Term
Calculate the moles of NaCl in 5 liters of a 2 molar solution.
Definition

M = n/L

2 M = n/5 L

10 = moles of NaCl

Term
Acid anhydride
Definition

Non-metallic oxides which, when reacted with water, form acid solutions.

e.g. CO2 + H2O → H2CO3

SO3 + H2O → H2SO4

Term
Basic anhydride
Definition

Metallic oxides which, when reacted with water, form basic solutions.

e.g. Na2O + H2O → 2 NaOH

CaO + H2O → Ca(OH)2

Term
Why is water a good solvent for ionic compounds?
Definition
Due to hydrogen bonding, water is polar. The negatively charged oxygen attracts a cation, and the positively charged hydrogen, an anion.
Term
Solubility Curves
Definition
A curve for a given substance which shows how much dissolves in a given amount of solvent at different temperatures.
Term
How do temperature and pressure affect the solubility of a solid?
Definition
Solubility usually increases with increasing temperature. Pressure has little effect.
Term
How do temperature and pressure affect the solubility of a gas?
Definition
Solubility usually decreases with increasing temperature. Solubility in creases in direct proportion to an increase in pressure.
Term
Which three factors affect the rate of solubility?
Definition

pulverizing

stirring

heating

Term
What is a general rule for solubilities of polar and nonpolar compounds?
Definition

"Like dissolves like." Ionic and polar solvents dissolve ionic, polar solutes.

e.g. Water dissolves salt.

 

Nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes.

e.g. Acetone dissolves gasoline and cooing oil.

Term
Solubility of nitrates, acetates, and chlorates in water.
Definition
All are soluble
Term
Solubility of Na, K, and (NH4)+ compounds in water.
Definition
All are soluble.
Term
Solubility of chlorides in water.
Definition
All chlorides are soluble, except Ag, Hg, Pb.
Term
Solubility of sulfates in water.
Definition
All sulfates are soluble, except Pb, Ba, Sr, Ca
Term
Solubility of carbonates, phosphates, sulfides, and silicates in water.
Definition
All insoluble, except Na, K, (NH4)+
Term
Solubility of hydroxides (OH-) in water.
Definition
All insoluble except Na, K, (NH4)+, Ca, Ba, Sr
Term
Hydrated ion
Definition
A dissolved ion which is surrounded by water molecules. It is attracted electrostatically to the polar water molecule.
Term
Miscible
Definition

Two liquids which dissolve in each other.

e.g. water and alcohol

Term
Immiscible
Definition

Two liquids which do not dissolve in each other.

e.g. oil and vinegar

Term
Brownian Movement
Definition
When light is shone through a colloid, the individual zig-zag paths of the particles in the dispersing medium can be observed; like smoke in a dark theater.
Term
Basic facts about Solutions
Definition

particle size less than 1 nanometer. 

Clear (may be colored)

)articles don't settle

Can pass through membranes

Particles not visible

Term
Basic facts about colloids
Definition

particles measure 1-1000 nanometers

Particles don't pass through a membrane

Show Brownian movement and the Tyndall effect

Particles don't settle

Clear

Pass through filter paper

Term
Basic facts about Suspensions
Definition

No Brownian movement

Don't pass through filter paper or a memebrane

Cloudy, but particles settle on standing

Particles visible with microscope or eye

Term
Dilute
Definition
Small amount of solute in the solvent.
Term
Concentrated
Definition
Large amount of solute in the solvent.
Term
Saturated
Definition
In the presence of undissolved solute, the solution is holding all the solute possible at that temperature.
Term
Unsaturated
Definition
More solute can be dissolved in the solvent at that temperature.
Term
Supersaturated
Definition
Created by cooling a saturated solution. If cooled slowly, the solute stays dissolved. The amount of solute in the solution is greater than the solubility at a given temperature.
Term
Write the equation for percent concentration of a solute in a solution (mass/mass).
Definition
% concentration = (gsolute/gsolution)(100%)
Term
HOw many grams of NaCl are required to prepare 500 g of a 5% solution?
Definition
% Conc. = (gNaCl/gsolution)(100%) 5% = (x/500 g)(100%) 25 g NaCl = x
Term
Molality
Definition

The number of moles of solute dissolved in 1 kg of solvent.

molality (m) = moles solute/kg solvent

Term
Calculate the molality of 10 moles of H2SO4 dissolved in 4 kg of water.
Definition
molality = moles solute/kg solvent = 10/4 = 2.5 molal
Term
Gram-equivalent weight
Definition
The amount of substance which reacts with or displaces one mole of H+ ions.
Term
Normality
Definition
The number of gram-equivalent weights in a liter of solution.
Term
Wire the equation for molarity changes related to diluting a solution.

M = molarity

V = Volume

Term
10 liters of a 6 molar solution is diluted to 3 molar. What is the final volume?
Definition

(M1)(V1)= (M2)(V2)
