What is the definition of a soluble substance?
A soluble substance is one that can be dissolved in a solvent.
True or False: An insoluble substance cannot dissolve in a solvent.
True
Fill in the blank: A __________ is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances.
solution
What is residue?
Residue is the solid material that remains after a liquid has been removed or has evaporated.
What is the process of filtration used for?
Filtration is used to separate solids from liquids or gases using a filter medium.
True or False: Evaporate means to convert a liquid into vapor.
True
What is crystallization?
Crystallization is the process of forming solid crystals from a solution.
Multiple Choice: Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of a solution? A) Homogeneous B) Variable composition C) Clear D) Stable
B) Variable composition
What happens during the evaporation process?
During evaporation, the liquid phase of a substance changes into vapor, often leaving behind solid residue.
Fill in the blank: A substance that does not dissolve in water is considered __________.
insoluble
What is the main purpose of crystallization in chemistry?
The main purpose of crystallization is to purify a substance by forming pure solid crystals.
True or False: All soluble substances can dissolve in any solvent.
False
What is the key difference between soluble and insoluble substances?
The key difference is that soluble substances can dissolve in a solvent, while insoluble substances cannot.
Multiple Choice: Which process can be used to separate a solid from a liquid in a mixture? A) Evaporation B) Filtration C) Crystallization D) All of the above
D) All of the above
What is a saturated solution?
A saturated solution is one that contains the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at a given temperature.
Fill in the blank: The solid that remains after a solution is filtered is called the __________.
residue
True or False: Solutions can be composed of gases.
True
What role does temperature play in the solubility of a substance?
Temperature can affect the solubility of a substance, typically increasing solubility in solids and decreasing it in gases.
Multiple Choice: Which process involves cooling a solution to form solid crystals? A) Filtration B) Evaporation C) Crystallization D) Dissolution
C) Crystallization
What is the definition of a solvent?
A solvent is a substance that dissolves a solute, resulting in a solution.
What is the process called when a solid turns directly into a gas?
Sublimation
True or False: Melting is the change of state from liquid to gas.
False
Fill in the blank: The change from gas to liquid is known as __________.
Condensation
Which of the following is NOT a change of state: a) freezing, b) boiling, c) dissolving?
