(39 cards)
A homogeneous mixture of two or more substances in a single phase
Solution
The dissolving medium in a solution
Solvent
The substance dissolved in a solution
Solute
Particles in a solvent are too large that they settle out unless the mixture is constantly stirred or agitated
Suspension
Particles that are intermediate in size between those and solutions and suspensions form mixtures known as…
Colloids
A substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that conduct electric current
Electrolyte
A substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that does not conduct an electric current
Non-electrolyte
The physical state in which the opposing processes of the solution crystallization of a solute current equal rates
Solution equilibrium
A solution that contains the maximum amount of dissolved solute
Saturated solution
A solution that contains less solute in a saturated solution under the existing conditions
Unsaturated solution
A solution that contains more dissolved solute any saturated solution contains under the same condition
Supersaturated solution
The amount of that substance required to form a saturated solution with a specific amount of solvent at a specified temperature
Solubility
Solution process with water is the solvent is referred to
Hydration
Liquids that are not soluble in each other
Immiscible
Liquids that dissolve freely in one another in any proportion
Miscible
The solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas on the surface of the liquid
Henry’s law
The rapid escape of a gas from a liquid in which it is dissolved
Effervescence
A solute particles that are surrounded by a solvent molecules
Solvated
The net amount of energy absorbed as heat by the solution with a specific amount of solute dissolves in a solvent
Enthalpy of solution
A measure of the amount of solute in a given amount of solvent or solution
Concentration
The number of moles of a solute in one liter of solution
Molarity
The concentration of a solution expressed in moles of solute per kilogram of solvent
Molality
The separation of ions that occurs when a ionic compound dissolves
Dissociation
Includes only those compounds and ions that undergo a chemical change and a reaction in a aqueous solution
Net ionic equation
