Types of Mixtures
Dissolving
Concentration
Saturation
Solution, Colloid, or Suspension
100
This type of mixture is the same everywhere.
What is homogeneous?
100
In a solution, this is the substance that gets dissolved.
What is solute?
100
This is what concentration measures.
What is the amount of solute dissolved in the solvent or solution?
100
This type of solution has less solute dissolved in it than can be dissolved under the current conditions.
What is unsaturated?
100
This type of mixture appears perfectly clear and light shines right through it without showing up.
What is solution?
200
This type of mixture is different in different places.
What is heterogeneous?
200
In a solution, this is the substance that dissolves the other substance.
What is solvent?
200
This is a way to measure concentration that tells how much solute is dissolved per liter of solution.
What is molarity?
200
This type of solution has even more solute dissolved in it than should be able to dissolve under current conditions.
What is supersaturated?
200
Saltwater is an example of this.
What is a solution?
300
Sand is this type of mixture.
What is heterogenous?
300
Doing this speeds up dissolving because it brings fresh solvent particles near to solute particles.
What is stirring?
300
This is a way to measure concentration that tells how much solute is dissolved per kg of solvent.
What is molality?
300
If you add additional solute to this type of solution, the additional solute will dissolve.
What is unsaturated.
300
Light is scattered by this type of mixture so that you can see a beam of light going through it.
What is a colloid?
400
A can of pop is this type of mixture.
What is homogeneous?
400
This process speeds up dissolving because it makes the solvent particles move faster, so the solvent particles hit the solute more often.
What is heating the solvent (or solution)?
400
Of the three mixture described below, this mixture is most concentrated: 3 M NaOH solution, 1.5 M NaOH solution, 0.2 M NaOH solution.
What is 3 M NaOH solution?
400
If you add additional solute to this type of solution, the solute will fall to the bottom of the beaker without doing anything at all.
What is saturated?
400
Ketchup is an example of this because it separates out over time.
What is a suspension?
500
Granite is this type of mixture.
What is heterogeneous?
500
This process speeds up dissolving because it increases the surface area of the solute so that the solvent particles can come into the solute particles more often.
What is breaking the solute into smaller pieces? (Will accept crushing the solute.)
500
Of the three solutions below, this one would require the most care when using it in an experiment: 12 M HCl, 0.1 M HCl, or 1 M HCl.
What is 12 M HCl?
500
In order to prepare this type of solution, you must heat a saturated solution while adding additional solute until it is all dissolved. Then you must carefully cool it so that the solution is not disturbed.
What is supersaturated?
500
In this type of mixture, one substance is said to be "dispersed" throughout the other.
What is a colloid?
