solution
homogenous mixtures
solvation
the clustering of solvent molecules around a solute particle
Hydration
when the solvent is water
enthalpy
the heat released or absorbed at constant pressure
entropy
a thermodynamic function associated with the number of different equivalent energy states or spatial arrangements in which a system may be found
endothermic
process in which a system absorbs heat form its surroundings
exothermic
process in which a system releases heat to its surroundings
crystallization
the process in which a dissolved solute comes out of solution and forms a crystalline solid
saturated
a solution that is in equillibrium with undissolved solute
solubility
the amount of solute needed to from a saturated solution in a given quantity of solvent
unsaturated
solutions containing less solute than a saturated solution
supersaturated
solutions that contain greater amount of solute than that needed to from a saturated solution
Henry's Law
the relationship between pressure and the solubility of a gas. C=kP
Dilute
a solution with a relatively small concentration
concentrated
a solution with a large concentration of solute
molarity
moles of solute per liters of solution
molality
number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent
mole fraction
moles of component per total moles of all components
colligative properties
properties of a solvent that depend on the total concentration of solute particles present.
electrolyte
a solute that produces ions in solution
nonelectrolyte
a substance that doesn't ionize in water and consequently gives a nonconducting solution
colloids
mixtures containing particles larger than normal solutes but small enough to remain suspended in the dispersing medium
hydrophobic
water repelling
hydrophillic
water attracting
Tyndall effect
the scattering of a beam of visible light by the particles in a colloidal dispersion
