Unit 5 and 6 Flashcards
Homogeneous mixture of two or more substances
Solution
The most abundant component of a solution in terms of moles
Solvent
Any component in a solution other than the solvent.
Solute
Water is a (blank) but aqueous describes (blank)
Solvent, solution
A substance that dissociates into ions when it dissolves enhancing the conductivity of the solvent
Electrolyte
A substance that dissociates completely into ions when it dissolves in water
Strong electrolyte
What is an example of a strong electrolyte?
Sodium chloride
A substance that does not dissociate into ions and therefore does not enhance the conductivity of water when dissolved
Non electrolyte
A substance that only partly dissociates into ions when it dissolves in water
Weak electrolyte
Few ions =
Poor conductivity
What is an example of a weak electrolyte?
Acetic acid
A solution in which the solvent is water
Aqueous
Interaction of water with ions
Positive H atoms attracted to (blank)
Negative O atom attracted to (blank)
Negative ion (anion) Positive ion (cation)
The feature of water relates to the concept of (blank)
Polarity
How do we know ions are present in aqueous solutions?
Solutions conduct electricity
Homogeneous mixture of two or more substances
Solution
What two things is a solution composed of?
Solute and solvent
Substances that ionize in water to form electrically conducting solutions
Electrolytes
Dissociates completely in solution
Strong electrolyte
(Blank) conducts electricity
Strong electrolyte
Dissociate partially in solution
Weak electrolyte
Dissolve in solution but do not ionize
No electrolytes
What are two examples of nonelectrolytes?
Ethanol and sugar
When oxides of sulfur, nitrogen, or other Nonmetals dissolve in water, they produce (blank)
Hydrogen ions
