Homogeneous Mixtures (Solids) Flashcards
1
Q
Matter
A
- A substance that OCCUPIES SPACE and HAS MASS
- Classified into:
1. Pure substances
2. Mixtures
2
Q
Mixtures
A
- Product of two or more substances that are PHYSICALLY combined.
- Retains original properties
3
Q
Properties of solutions
A
- Made of 2 or more substances combined together
- Solute + Solvent = Solution
- Appear to be in ONE PHASE (homogeneous)
4
Q
- Solute
A
Solid/liquid/gaseous substance is dissolved
- Amount affects consentration
- ⬆️solute ⬆️concentration
⬆️solute ⬆️ concentration
5
Q
- Solvent
A
- Solid/liquid/gaseous substance where solute is dissolved
🔘 Water: universal solvent
6
Q
- Dissolution
A
- Process of making solutions
7
Q
- Soluble/Immiscible
A
- Dissolving ability of substance
- Refers to SOLUBILITY: in specific amounts
8
Q
- Miscible/ Immiscible
A
- Refers to mixing substances in any amount
According to phase
- Solid Solutions
🔘 Alloys = Metals + another element
EXAMPLE:
🔴🔴🔴 ⬅️ (Metals) 🔵🔵🔵⬅️(Alloys)
9
Q
- Liquid Solutions
A
- Two substances mixed.
10
Q
- Gaseous Solutions
A
- Two substances mixed and form gaseous solutions.
11
Q
- SATURATION
A
- Amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent
- Three levels based on saturation point. (maximum)
1. Unsaturated
2. Saturated
3. Supersaturated
12
Q
- Unsaturated
A
- Amount of solute dissolved is less than the maximum that can be dissolved in the solvent.
13
Q
Saturated
A
- Amount of solute dissolved is the maximum that can be dissolved in the solvent.
14
Q
- Supersaturated
A
- Amount of solute added is more than the maximum amount that can be dissolved
- Required additional solvent or heat to dissolve.
