Term
What is the Brownian motion?
Definition
the erratic, random movement of colloid particles that results from collisions of particles of the dispersion medium with the dispersed particles
Term
What is a colloid?
Definition
a mixture containing particles that don't settle out
Term
What does it mean if something is immiscible?
Definition
two liquids can be mixed together but will separate shortly after
Term
What does it mean if something is insouble?
Definition
the substance doesn't dissolve in a solvent
Term
What does it mean if something is miscible?
Definition
two liquids that are soluble in each other in any proportion
Term
What does it mean is something is soluble?
Definition
substance can dissolve in a solvent
Term
What is a suspension?
Definition
a mixture containing particles that settle out if left undisturbed
Term
What is the Tyndall effect?
Definition
Dispersed colloid particles scatter light while partilces in a true solution let light shine through
Term
What is a concentration?
Definition
a measure of how much soute is dissolved in a specific amount of solvent or solution
Term
What is molality?
Definition
the ratio of the number of moles of solute dissoved in 1 kg of solvent
Term
What is the formula for molality?
Definition
m=moles of solute/kg of solvent
Term
What is molarity?
Definition
the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of solution
Term
What is the formula for molarity?
Definition
M=moles of solute/liters of solution
Term
What is a mole fraction?
Definition
the ratio of the number of moles of solute or solvent in a solution to the total number of moles of solute and solvent
Term
What is the formula for a mole fraction?
Definition
For a Solute: Xa= na/(na+nb)
For a solvent: Xb= nb/ (na+nb)
Term
What is the heat of solution?
Definition
the overall energy change that occurs during the solution formation process
Term
What is Henry's Law?
Definition
At a given temperature, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas above the liquid
Term
What is a saturated solution?
Definition
contains the maximum amount of dissolved solute for a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature and pressure
Term
What is solvation?
Definition
the process of surrounding solute particles with particles to form a solution
Term
What is a supersatureated solution?
Definition
contains more dissolved solute than a saturated solution at the same temperature
Term
What is an unsaturated solution?
Definition
contains less dissolved solute for a given temperature and pressure than a saturated solution
Term
What is boiling point elevation?
Definition
adding a solute to a solvent will raise its boiling point. the temperature diffence is called boiling point eleveation
Term
What is the colligative property?
Definition
property that depends on the number of solute particles in a solution
Term
What is freezing point depression?
Definition
adding a solute to a solvent lowers the freezing point of the solution
Term
What is osmosis?
Definition
diffusion of a solvent through a semipermeable membrane
Term
What is osmotic pressure?
Definition
the amount of additional pressure caused by the water molecules that moved into the concentrated solution
Depends on the number of solute particles in the solution
Term
Waht s vapor pressure lowering?
Definition
When a solute is added to a solvent and the vapor pressure is lowered
Term
What is the formula for percent by mass?
Definition
Percent by mass= (mass of solute/mass of solution) x 100
Term
What is the formula for percent by volume?
Definition
Percent by volume = (volume of solute/ volume of solution) x 100
Term
What is the formula for Henry's Law?
Definition
S1/P1 = S2/P2
Term
What are the factors that affect solvation?
Definition
Agitation, Surface area, and temperature
Term
How does agitation help with solvation?
Definition
stirring or shaking moves solute particles away from each other allowing collisions between solute and solvent particles
Term
How does surface area help with solvation?
Definition
breaking apart solute particles allows for more surface area in shich more collisions can occur
Term
HOw does temperature help with solvation?
Definition
as temperature increases, solvation increases
Term
What do you do if you are finding the freezing point depression or boiling point elevation of a convalent bond?
Definition
Don't multiple the moles of the solute, because the moles don't break apart when you find molality
Term
What do you do if you are finding the freezing point depression or boiling point elevation of an ionic bond?
Definition
Multiply the number of moles by the number of ions in the bond when you find molality
Term
What is a thixotropic mixture?
Definition
suspension that separates into a solid like mixture on the bottom and water on teh top and flows like a liquid
Term
What is a heterogeneous mixture?
Definition
mixture that doesn't blend smoothly throughout and the individual substances remain distinct
Term
What is a homogeneous mixture?
Definition
one that has a uniform composition and in which the individual substances don't remain the same
Term
What is the most common sovent?
Definition
water
Term
What Law only works if the solution is a gas dissolved in a liquid?
Definition
Henry's Law
