Vocab for Matter (?) unit Flashcards
A solution that contains less solute than a saturated solution does and that is able to dissolve additional solute
unsaturated solution
the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a gas
boiling point
the difference in temperature between the boiling point of a solution and the boiling point of the pure solvent
boiling point elevation
A property of a solution that depends on the number, not the identity, of the solute particles.
colligative property
a solid in which the atoms are arranged in a pattern that repeats again and again
crystal
intermolecular forces resulting from the attraction of oppositely charged regions of polar molecules
dipole interactions
the weak forces resulting from temporary shifts in the density of electrons in electron clouds
dispersion force
the difference in temperature between the freezing point of a solution and the freezing point of the pure solvent
freezing point depression
A state of matter with no definite shape or volume
gas
Formed when one or more electrons are transferred from one atom to another
ionic bond
a covalent bond in which the electrons are shared equally by the two atoms
nonpolar covalent
Molecule with partial charges. Mixes with water.
polar
A homogeneous mixture of two or more substances
solution
A solid made up of particles that are not arranged in a regular pattern
amporphous solid
a solution in which water is the solvent
aqueous solution
