A solute is the material that dissolves in a solvent to form a homogeneous mixture called a solution. Solutes made up of polar molecules dissolve in polar solvents while non-polar solvents can dissolve non-polar solutes. Water, with polar molecules, is one of the strongest solvents because it ...
Consider the following; a. What takes place when a solute dissolves in a solvent? How would this be determined? b. What process in the molecular level takes place to explain what is observed? c. Do all solutes dissolve in the same way? Do acids and bases dissolve in the same way?
There are different quantities in chemistry that represent how diluted or concentrated a solution is. Generally speaking, the concentration of a solution is represented by the ratio of solute to solvent in a solution, or the ratio of solute to solution. ...
Why is the drying of wet clothes a physical change? Why is the volume of an ice cube is greater compared to when it melts to form liquid water? With reference to solubility (solvent, solute), explain why people have their clothes dry cleaned. ...
Insoluble means incapable ofdissolvingin asolvent. It is rare for absolutely nosoluteto dissolve at all. However, many substances are poorly soluble. For example, very little silver chloride dissolves in water, so it is said to be insoluble in water. Note a compound may be insoluble in one ...
Why does a sample of boiling water remain at the same temperature until all the water has been boiled? Explain how the addition of a solute affects the boiling point of a solvent? Why does water have a higher boiling point than alcohol even though water is a smaller molecule?
Solubility Solubility maximum grams of solute that will dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a given temperature Concentration Concentrated solution large amount of solute Dilute solution small amount of solute Precise Concentrations Percent by Volume Usually liquid in liquid EX...
What can help overcome a positive enthalpy of a solution and allow a solid solute to dissolve in water? A. decrease in entropy B. large amount of energy released C. increase in entropy D. large amount How does the entropy of a system change for the following proces...
When you add sugar to water, the water (the solvent) becomes a solution (a solute dissolved in a solvent). Adding sugar disrupts the liquid state because sugar molecules move around aimlessly, making the liquid water molecules less organized. Sugar molecules don't pack together with water molec...
solutions that have high concentrations of a large amount of solute in the solution. If a solution is concentrated to the point where no more solute will dissolve in the solvent, it is said to besaturated. Dilute solutions contain a small amount of solute compared with the amount of solvent...
