TERMS
Solution
A homogenous mixture where a solute's dissolved in a solvent
Positive and negative ions are pulled apart by attraction to positive and negative ends of polar solvent
Why is water called the universal solvent
Because it dissolves all polar solutions and some nonpolar solutions.
The __________ the size of the particles, the easier it is to dissolve
smaller
Sulfur particles in air is a _________________ solution
Solid-gas
Solute
Substance being dissolved
Solubility
max amount of solute that can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent at a given temp
Polar solvents dissolve....
Polar solutes and ionic compounds
Brass is a _________________ solution
solid-solid
Humidity is a _________________ solution
liquid-gas
Solvent
The substance that is doing dissolving (Always the larger quality)
Saturated
a solvent contains all the solute it can dissolve at this temperature
Nonpolar solvents dissolve...
Nonpolar solutes
A dental amalgam is a _________________ solution
liquid-solid
A carbonated beverage is a _________________ solution
gas-liquid
Alloy
Man-made metal
Unsaturated
a solvent can dissolve more
Soap and alcohol dissolve...
Both polar and nonpolar solutes
Air is a _________________ solution
gas-gas
Temp _____________ the solubility of a gas
Decreases
Ionization
Positive and negative ends of covalent molecules are broken apart by positive and negative ends of solute to form ions
Supersaturated
solvent contains more solute than it can dissolve at that temp
What affects the rate of dissolving
Size of solute particles
stirring, shaking
temperature
pressure
Gas masks are a _________________ solution
gas-solid
Pressure ___________ the solubility of gases
Increases
