Blocks

Theoretical Yield

amount of product that results if all the limiting reagent reacted w/o loss

Actual yield

amount of product obtained from a reaction (sometimes given)

electrolyte

a subtance that results in a solution that can conduct electricity when dissolved in water (cations and anions)

nonelectrolyte

substance that results in a solution that doesnt conduct electricity when dissolved in water (covalent compound)

precipitate

insoluble solid that separates from solution

Solubility

maximum amount of solute that will dissolve in a given quantity of a solvent

Arrhenius acid

only produces H+ in water

Arrhenius base

only produces OH- in water

Bronstead acid

proton donor

Bronstead base

proton acceptor

Neutralization Reaction

Acid+Base---> Salt+water

Solvent

a substance that can dissolve other substances

Solute

substance that dissolves in a solvent & can be present in differnet amounts of concentrations

Dilution

procedure for preparing a less concentrated solution

Titration

Solution of accurately known concentration is added gradually to another solution of unknown concentrate

Equivalence point

When the moles of the titrant equal the moles of the analyte

End point

past the equivalence point where the indicator shows physical change (color change)

Indicator

substance that changes color near or at the end point
