7.6.D - Aqueous Solutions
7.6.E - Rate of Dissolution
100

A homogeneous mixture of substances. One substance (the solute) is dissolved in another substance (the solvent).

What is a solution?

100

A solution in which the solvent is water

What is an Aqueous Solution?

100

Average kinetic energy of all the particles in a material; measured by a thermometer in degrees

What is Temperature?

100

The part of a solution that gets dissolved.

The part of a solution that does the dissolving.

What is Solute - Dissolved

What is Solvent - Dissolving

100

When you agitate a solution it makes it dissolve _______.

Faster

200

A substance that dissolves in another substance (solvent) to form a homogeneous mixture.

What is a Solute?

200

A measurement of the amount of solute that is dissolved in a given quantity of solvent

What is Concentration?

200

The speed at which a solute spreads out uniformly into a solvent

What is Rate of dissolution?

200

Adding more water to Kool-Aid makes it weaker. This word describes that action.

What is Dilution

200

Which of these has  a faster rate of dissolution? Why?

The granulated sugar. Surface Area

300

A substance in which another substance (solute) is dissolved to form a homogeneous mixture. 

What is a Solvent?

300

The process of decreasing the concentration of a solute in a solution, usually simply by mixing with more solvent like adding more water to the solution.

What is Dilution?

300

When two or more atoms combine

What is a Molecule?

300

This solution is the most concentrated

What is 5.

300

What are the 3 main factors of the Rate of Dissolution?

Temperature, Surface Area, and Agitation

400

The exposed area of a solid; expressed as squared units of length.

What is Surface Area?

400

The process of a solute becoming uniformly dispersed in a solvent, resulting in the formation of a solution

What is Dissolve?

400

A substance made up of atoms of two or more different elements joined by chemical bonds

What is a Compound?

400

A student mixes Gatorade powder with water. It tastes too strong. How they can dilute it and what happens to the concentration?

Add more water (solvent), it will decrease the concentration.

400

A student drops three sugar cubes into three cups of water:

  • Cup A: hot water, stirred

  • Cup B: hot water, not stirred

  • Cup C: cold water, stirred

Which cup will dissolve the sugar cubes the fastest, and why?

Cup A, because higher temperature and stirring both increase the rate of dissolution

500

The ability of a solute to dissolve in a solvent at a specific temperature and pressure.

What is Solubility?

500

The stirring or mixing of a solution so as to increase the particle movement of the solute particles in solution

What is Agitation?

500

A substance that cannot be separated or broken down into simpler substances by chemical means

What is an Element?

500

Mrs. Penske stirs sugar into iced tea until no more sugar will dissolve and some sits at the bottom of the glass. What type of solution has he made?

A saturated solution

500

Increasing this variable allows more solvent molecules to directly contact the outer particles of a solid solute at once, significantly speeding up how quickly it dissolves.

What is surface area?
