1

solubility

The ability of a substance to dissolve in another substance

New cards
2

solvent

In a solution, the substance in which the solute dissolves.

New cards
3

solute

substance that is dissolved

New cards
4

NaCl in water

positive side of water molecules pulls neg charged chloride ion off

negative side of water molecules pull pos charged sodium ion

New cards
5

polar molecules dissolve

polar molecules and ionic compounds

New cards
6

solubility rule 1 (covalent compounds)

most covalent compounds don't dissolve in water unless there's a polar portion.

sugars and alcohols

New cards
7

solubility rule 2 (lower electrochemical)

some ionic compounds have lower electrochemical attraction

split to form electrolytes

New cards
8

solubility rule 3 (higher electrochemical)

some ionic compounds have higher electrochemical attraction

precipitate out the solution

New cards
9

saturated solution

a solution that cannot dissolve any more solute under the given conditions

New cards
10

unsaturated solution

any solution that can dissolve more solute at a given temperature

New cards
11

disassociation ionic compounds

the separation of ions that occurs when a solid ionic compound dissolves

New cards
12

ionization

any process that results in the formation of an ion

New cards
13

strong acids and bases...

break apart

New cards
14

weak acids and bases with low solubility...

will not dissolve

New cards
15

polyatomic ions...

will not break apart

New cards
16

covalent compounds...

do not break apart

New cards
17

solubility depends on

the attractions between molecules (cations, anions) of the solute and the solvent

New cards
18

ways to determine unknown ions

color of precipitates

color of flame tests

adding unknown reagents to unknown solutions

New cards
19

relationship between increase in ksp and solubility

increase ksp = increase solubility

New cards
20

ksp is the...

most [ ] an ion can have without ppt

New cards
21

max molar solubility (max a solution can hold) =

the concentration of a saturated solution at a certain temp

New cards
22

saturation and equilibrium

when a solution is at saturation it is at equilibrium

New cards
23

tip>ksp

ppt forms

New cards
24

tip<ksp

no ppt

New cards
25

tip = ksp

equlibrium

New cards
26

molarity

moles / volume

New cards
27

molality

mass / volume

New cards
28

electrolyte

a substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that conducts electric current

disassociates into ions

New cards
29

cation

A positively charged ion

New cards
30

anion

A negatively charged ion

New cards
31

dissociation

when strong acids and bases are put into water and break apart
