Chapter One: Review Flashcards
(222 cards)
Solvent
Is the substance that other substances (solute) are dissolved in. Usually a liquid, sometimes a gas.
A liquid (the solvent) and its dissolved solutes.
Solution
Solution has a higher solute concentration than the other solution. NET water moves towards this.
Hypertonic Solution
Hypotonic solution
Solution has lower solute concentration than the other solution. NET water moves away
Solutions have equal solute concentrations NO NET movement of water.
Isotonic solution
Compound that dissociates into one or more hydrogen ions and one or more anions.
- donates H+ or produces H+
- HCl yields H+ + cl- ( in water)
Acid
Molecule that binds with hydrogen ions when dissolved in water or produces OH- ions
- accepts H+ or produces OH-
Bases
What is a logarithmic scale used for concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution.
pH scale
pH value= 7
Neutral solution
pH value greater than or equal to 7
Basic solutions
pH value less than or equal to 7
Acid solutions
Acidic solutions
Add H+ to the molecules
Basic solutions
Take off H+ from the molecule
