suspension

heterogeneous mixture with large particles visible to the naked eye, does not transmit light, settle into layers when left sitting

26
New cards

VSEPR theory

electron pairs in a molecule will repel one another, therefor electrons will distribute themselves in positions around the central atom that are as far away from each other as possible

27
New cards

polarizability

measure of ease with which electron charge density is distorted by an external electron field

-reflects the ability for which a dipole can be induced

39
New cards

critical point

the point on the phase diagram where the liquid and gaseous states are indistinguishable

40
New cards

supercritical fluid

any substance at a temperature and pressure above its critical point, distinct liquid and gas phases merge into a single uniform phase

41
New cards

crystalline solid

particles arranged in a repeated 3 dimensional lattice, distinct melting point, ex. diamond, ice, salt, sugar

42

why is the solvation process thermodynamically favorable

increase in entropy and decrease in energy

vapor pressure lowering

adding solute lowers b/c solute particles occupy space at the liquids surface, less particles are able to push through and escape

P (solvent) = X(solvent) * P initial (solvent)

delta P = X(solute) * P initial (solvent)

68

more solute means more energy required for solvent molecules to boil bc crowdedness

change in temperature= ikm

m is molality of solute

add to original boiling point

69

addition of solute makes it more difficult for solvent to organize itself into structure, more energy must be withdrawn from solution to cause solidification

subtract from original freezing point

osmosis

72
New cards

hypertonic solution

higher concentration of solute particles outside of cell, water flows outside of cell and shrinks (crenation)

73
New cards

hypotonic solution

solute concentration is greater inside the cell, water rushes into cell and causes hemolysis

74
New cards

tyndall effect

75
New cards

coagulation

colloid particles clump and chunks become so heavy they fall out of dispersion

-caused by heating (increased KE makes particles more likely to collide) and electrolyes
