Solute
|
material being dissolves
|
|
Solvent
|
material doing the dissolving
|
|
Solution
|
combination of solute dissolved in solvent.
|
|
Aqueous solution
|
a solution with water as the solvent (like hot water and sugar)
|
|
What does "like dissolve like" mean?
|
polar solvent dissolves polar solute, non-polar solvent dissolves non-polar solute.
|
|
What happens, from a molecular point-of-view, to a crystal lattice during the solvation process?
|
As solute ions breaks away from the crystal, the positive and negative charged ions become surrounded by the solvent molecules and the ionic crystal lattice.
|
|
Unsaturated solution
|
a solution that is contains less solute than a saturated solution at a given temp and pressure.
|
|
Saturated Solution
|
a solution that contains the maximum amount of solute for a given amount of solvent at a constant temp and pressure. (the perfect amount that is needed)
|
|
Supersaturated solution
|
a solution that contains more solute than it can theoretically hold at a given temp. (too much solute so cannot melt/become a solution)
|
|
How does Temperature affect the solubility of a solute?
|
Increases the kinetic energy
|
|
How does Agitation affect the solubility of a solute?
|
Increases rate of the collision.
|
|
How does Particle Size affect the solubility of a solute?
|
Increases surface area.
|
|
What is Molarity?
|
The concentration of the number of moles of a solute that are dissolved in 1 Kilogram of a solvent.
|
|
What is the equation of Molarity?
|
M=n/v
|
|
Arrhenius Base
|
substance that produces an OH- ions when dissolved in water.
|
|
Arrhenius Acid
|
substance that produces H+ ions when dissolved in water.
|
|
Bronsted-Lowry Acid
|
substance that is an H+ ion donor.
|
|
Bronsted-Lowry Base
|
substance that is an H+ acceptor.
|
|
4 Properties of Acids
|
Taste sour, will change color of an acid-base indicator, can be strong electrolytes in aqueous solution, and can be weak electrolytes in aqueous solution.
|
|
4 Properties of Bases
|
Taste bitter, will change color of an acid-base indicator, feels slippery, and can be strong or weak electrolytes in aqueous solution.
|
|
What is the defining feature of a strong acid & strong base?
|
They will completely dissociate (completely separate into ions) when added to water.
|
|
What is the defining feature of a weak acid & weak base?
|
They will only partially dissociate (partly separate into ions) when added to water.
|
|
Repolarization
|
A change in membrane potential returning to the initial resting (polarized) state; cell interior becomes relatively more negative than cell exterior. (Na+ gates close not allowing them to pass through, K+ passes through).
|
|
Hyperpolarization
|
The process by which the membrane potential of a cell changes to become more negative than its resting membrane potential.
|
|
-70mV
|
Resting Potential
|
|
-55mV
|
Depolarization/Threshold
|
|
-85mV
|
Hyperpolarization
|
|
4 types of neuroglias in cns
|
astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microgli, ependymal.
|
|
2 types of neuroglias in pns
|
Schwann, satellite
|
|
Myelination
|
Axons of most mammalian neurons are surrounded by a multilayered coating.
|
|
Myelinated Axon
|
Greatly increases speed of nerve impulse conduction. Also, response to stimuli gets more rapid and coordinated.
