(30 cards)
occurs in a chemical reaction
chemical change
also called a homogeneous mixture
solute
solution that does not conduct electricity
nonelectrolyte
a mixture of elements that has metallic properties
alloy
a quantitative measure of the amount of solute in a given amount of solvent or solution
concentration
two liquids that are soluble in each other
miscible
the ability or inability of a substance to combine or change into one or more new substances
chemical reactibity
has a uniform composition
homogenous
a physical blend of two or more pure substances in any proportion in which each substance retains its individual properties
mixture
moles of solute dissolved per liter of solution
molarity
the scattering of light by colloidal particles
tyndall effect
a type of heterogeneous mixture whose particles settle out over time and can be separated by filtration
suspension
solution containing more solute than a saturated solution
supersaturated
heterogeneous mixture containing particles larger than solution particles but smaller than suspension particles
colloid
does not change the composition of substance
physical change
a substance that does not dissolve in a solvent
insoluble
explains why water is a liquid at room temperature while compounds of similar mass are gases
hydrogen bonding
an ionic compound that can conduct electricity when aqueous
electrolyte
the substance that dissolves the solute
solvent
a substance dissolved in a solution
solute
can be observed of measured without changing the composition
physical property
a solution that has the ability to hold more solute
unsaturated
a solution containing the maximum amount of solute
saturated
the random, rapid movements of colloid particles
brownian motion
