this separation of ions that occurs when an ionic compound dissolves |
|
dissociation |
| |
includes only those compounds and ions that undergo a chemical change in a reaction in an aqueous solution |
|
net ionic equation |
| |
ions that do not take part in a chemical reaction and are found in solution both before and after the reaction |
|
spectator ions |
| |
ions are formed from solute molecules by the action of the solvent |
|
ionization |
| |
the H30+ ion is known as |
|
the hydronium ion |
| |
any compound whose dilute aqueous solutions conduct electricity well; this is due to the presence of all or almost all of the dissolved compound in the form of ions |
|
strong electrolyte |
| |
any compound whose dilute aqueous solutions conduct electricity poorly; this is due to the presence of a small amount of the dissolved compound in the form of ions |
|
weak electrolyte |
| |
properties that depend on the concentration of solute particles but not on their identity |
|
colligative properties |
| |
one that has little tendency to become a gas under existing conditions |
|
nonvolatile substance |
| |
is the freezing point depression of the solvent in a 1-molal solution of a nonvolatile, nonelectrolyte solute |
|
molal freezing-point constant (Kf) |
| |
the difference between the freezing points of the pure solvent and a solution of a nonelectrolyte in that solvent, and it is directly proportional to the molal concentration of the solution |
|
freezing-point depression |
| |
the boiling-point elevation of the solvent in a 1-molal solution of a nonvolatile, nonelectrolyte solute |
|
molal boiling-point constant |
| |
the difference between the boiling points of the pure solvent and a nonelectrolyte solution of that solvent, and it is directly proportional to the molal concentration of the solution |
|
boiling-point elevation |
| |
allows the passage of some particles while blocking the passage of others |
|
semipermeable membrane |
| |
the movement of solvent through a semipermeable membrane from the side of lower solute concentration to the side of higher solute concentration |
|
osmosis |
| |
the external pressure that must be applied to stop osmosis |
|
osmotic pressure |
