solubility
is the ability of a substance, known as the solute, to dissolve in a solvent to form a homogeneous solution. It is usually measured in terms of the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature and pressure. Can be affected by factors such as temperature, pressure, and the chemical nature of the solute and solvent.

New cards
Saturated Solution
A solution in which the maximum amount of solute has been dissolved at a given temperature and pressure. It is in a state of equilibrium between the undissolved solute and the dissolved solute.
3
New cards
In liquids how can you increase solubility?
Miscible ot Immiscable
4
New cards
In solids how can you increase solubility?
By increasing temperature, reducing particle size, and agitating the mixture.
5
New cards
miscible
When two or more substances are capable of mixing together to form a homogeneous solution. When a liquid dissolves in another liquid.
6
New cards
Immiscible
liquids that don’t dissolve in each other eg. oil and water.
7
New cards
elements
\ Elements are substances made of atoms with the same number of protons. they have very low solubility and their solubility is therefore not very effected by other factors.
8
New cards
dynamic equilibrium
A state of balance in a system where the forward and reverse reactions occur at equal rates. The concentrations of reactants and products remain constant over time.
9
New cards
dissociation
name of reaction when an ionic compound dissolves in water.
10
New cards
molecular compounds
Type of compound formed by covalent bonding between non-metal atoms. They share electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration. They have low melting and boiling points, and do not conduct electricity in any state.
11
New cards
Ionic compounds
Type of chemical compound formed by the attraction between positively and negatively charged ions. They have high melting and boiling points, are usually soluble in water, and conduct electricity when dissolved or melted. Examples include NaCl (table salt) and CaCO3 (calcium carbonate).
12
New cards
Bases
Bases are a type of chemical compound that can accept protons from acids, producing hydroxide ions. They are usually slippery to the touch and have a bitter taste. Examples include sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and ammonia (NH3). Bases are IONIC.
13
New cards
Acids
Substances that donate hydrogen ions (H+) in a solution, resulting in a decrease in pH and the ability to react with bases to form salts. formula will either start with H- or end with COOH. They must be (aq to display acidic properties).
14
New cards
What entity rules do bases follow
Ionic
15
New cards
When will acids stay together in the entities?
When they are a weak acid.
16
New cards
What entity rules do c=molecular compounds follow?
never split up, change state if they have hydrogen bonding or are polar (high solubility).
17
New cards
endothermic
Process that absorbs heat from the surroundings. It requires energy input to occur, resulting in a decrease in temperature of the surroundings. Examples include melting ice and photosynthesis.
18
New cards
exothermic
A type of chemical reaction that releases heat energy to the surroundings.
19
New cards
when bonds break energy is
When bonds break, energy is __absorbed__.
20
New cards
when bonds form energy is
When bonds form, energy is __released__.
21
New cards
dissociation ____ __bonds which__ __ energy
Dissociation breaks bonds which requires energy
22
New cards
concentration
a ratio of solute compared to teh entire solution c=n/v
23
New cards
Parts per million units
Mg/Kg, Mg/L
24
New cards
Stock solution
an initial solution with a known concentration that samples are then taken from to make further solutions.
25
New cards
Standard solution
A less concentrated solution usually made from a stock solution. Has a known concentration.
