Q

what is a homogeneous mixture?

A

Theoretically - uniform at the atomic and molecular level.

Where most liquid and gas state solutions are transparent

However, there are solutions that are colored as well (mostly with solids/metals)

Q

What does all aqueous solutions have? (three things)

A

They have water as a solvent

they may be coloured or colourless (Most useless piece of information but oh well)

are electrolytes (can conduct electricity

Q

what did Svante Arrhenius do 1887?

A

explain electrolytes

proposed that when a substance dissolves, particles separate and disperse.

Q

What makes ionic compounds electrolytes?

A

Because they are electrolytes, they have electrically charged particles that split away from each other when it dissociates.

24
Does breaking bonds or forming bonds release or require energy
Breaking bonds = uses energy. Forming bonds = releases energy.
25
What is concentration?
The ratio of solute to solvent
26
What is the definition of a dilute solution?
Has a relatively small quantity of solute per unit volume of solvent
27
What is the definition of a concentrated solution?
Has a relatively large quantity of solute per unit volume of solvent.
28
How to do volume by volume concentration
V solute. *100% = V% V solution Make sure you say v/v at the end Make sure the units are the same
29
How to do % concentration mass by volume?
M solute *100 = concentration V solution Make sure you say m/v at the end Make sure that the units are the same
30
How to do concentration mass by mass
M solute *100 = concentration M solvent Make sure units are the same
31
What is molarity of a solution?
M/L Always in moles per litre.
32
What does M mean?
Moles per litre.
33
How to do parts per million concentration
(Miligram)/kg = ppm Miligram/L = ppm
34
What is parts per billion and parts per trillion ratio
1 : 10 to the nine | 1 : 10 to the twelve
35
How can solutions be prepared?
``` Solid solute Dilution method (oj from frozen concentrate) ```
36
What is a standard solution?
Solution of accurate concentration used in and prepared for labs and industry
37
What are the two pieces of equipment necessary to prepare a solution from a solid?
Electronic balances, volumetric flasks
38
How to prepare a dilution solution
Start with the stock solution (concentrated samples taken for dilution) Then decide if you want it to be dilute (less than 0.1 mol/L) or concentrated (more than 1 mol/L) Add solvent
39
What is the solution formula?
CV = C2V2 Where C is the concentration And V is volume (V can be any unit as long as it's the same)
40
Why should you dilute a solution?
To slow down a reaction
41
What is the equipment necessary to dilute a solution?
Graduated pipette, and volumetric pipette, volumetric flask
42
What type of relationship does concentration and volume
A INVERSE RELATIONSHIP!
43
What is Ion concentration? What is a mole ratio?
of ions in a solution as a ratio One mol of [CaCl2] Equals one mol of [Ca 2+] And two mol of [Cl -] to create a 1:1:2 ratio (compound, cation, anion)
44
How to find ion concentration
Concentration • number of ion mol's / number of mol's in solution Ex 0.500mol/L of CaCl2 • 2/1 = 1mol/L of Cl2
45
What is an unsaturated solution?
More solute can be added. Test by adding more solute
46
What is a saturated solution?
Max amount of solute in a given temp. Test by adding more solute and it will not dissolve
47
What is a supersaturated solution?
More than the max amount of solute is dissolved at given conditions (by heating and cooling it) The test is adding more solute and the solution crystalizes
48
What is dynamic equilibrium?
When two opposite processes happen at the same rate. Ex The rate of dissolving is equal to the crystallization process.
49
What is BCE?
Balanced chemical equation
50
What is TIE?
Total ionic equation
51
What is NIE?
Net ionic equation
52
What is a ppt?
Precipitate
53
What is a spectator ion?
an ion that exists as a reactant and a product in a chemical equation. Removed for the NIE
54
When are solids more soluble in water?
When the water temp. Is higher
55
When are gasses more soluble in water
Lower temp, higher pressure.
56
What is the relationship between the solubility of gas as temp increases
AN INVERSE RELATIONSHIP
57
What increases the solubility of polar substances?
Higher temp.
58
What happens if you try to dissolve any amount of polar molecules with h bonding?
ALL OF IT gets dissolved. (Can NEVER become a saturated solution)
59
Do elements dissolve? What are the edge cases? What reacts with water?
No Halogens and oxygen gas (Halogens and alkali metals)
