3.7 Solutions and Mixtures + 3.8 Representations of Solutions + 3.10 Solubility

Solutions are sometimes called:

Homogeneous mixtures

What states can solutions be?

Solid, liquid, or gas

Do macroscopic properties vary throughout a solution?

No

In a heterogeneous mixture, the macroscopic properties depend on:

Location in the mixture

Solution composition can be expressed in one/multiple way(s)

Multiple

What is the most common method to express solution composition in the laboratory?

Molarity

Molarity = ?

Moles of solute / liters of solution

What do particulate representations of solutions communicate?

The structure and properties of solutions

How do particulate representations of solutions communicate the structure and properties of solutions?

By illustration of the relative concentrations of the components in the solution and drawings that show interactions among the components

Which substances tend to be miscible or soluble in one another? 

Substances with similar intermolecular interactions
