what are the 2 types of bonds
intramolecular and intermolecular
intramolecular bonding
inside the molecules and between the atoms
which type of bonding is stronger
intramolecular
what are the 3 types of intramolecular bonding
metallic (sea of electrons), ionic (electron transfer) and covalent (electron sharing)
what is normally the strongest type of chemical bond
metallic
intermolecular bonding
bonds between the molecules
metallic bonding in terms of solubility
Due to strong electrostatic attraction between metal ions and valance ions, metals are insoluble in water but will dissolve in acids.
ionic bonding in terms of solubility
These bonds are too strong to dissolve – in green sheet
covalent molecular bonding in terms of solubility
They are basically pushed apart into smaller pieces of the same molecule. Usually if an organic or covalent compound is small it’s more likely to dissolve.
solvent
does the dissolving – usually a liquid
solute
is dissolved – usually the solid
solution
homogeneous mixture – made of the solute and solvent, can be a solid, liquid or gas
unsaturated solution
a solution which contains less than the quantity of solute needed to saturate it under existing conditions of temperature and pressure
saturated solution
one in which no more solute will dissolve under existing conditions of temperature and pressure
supersaturated solution
solution which contains more solute than a saturated solution could normally hold under the existing conditions
solubility
tells you how saturated a solution is
dilute
contains very little solute in relation to the amount of solvent
concentrated
contains very little solution in relation to the amount of solvent
concentration
refers to the amount of solute dissolved in a certain amount of solvent
saturated vs unsaturated
ratio of g per 100ml
what is a factor affecting solubilty
temperature
how does increasing temp affect solubility
increases the solubility of solids
decreases the solubility of gases
what are aqueous solutions
Aqueous solutions are solutions in which the solvent dissolves in water (aq)
what are strong electrolytes
A strong electrolyte occurs any time you have an ion even if there isn’t very many of them
