What is a Brønsted-Lowry base?

A Brønsted-Lowry base is a substance that accepts a proton (H+).

Identify a conjugate acid-base pair in the reaction: HC2O4- (aq) + H2O (l) ⇌ H3O+ (aq) + C2O42- (aq)

A conjugate acid-base pair consists of two species that differ by a single proton. In the reaction, HC2O4- acts as an acid, donating a proton to form C2O42-, its conjugate base. H2O acts as a base, accepting a proton to form H3O+, its conjugate acid.

What is the role of AlCl3 in the reaction AlCl3 + Cl- → AlCl4-?

A Lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. In the reaction, AlCl3 accepts a lone pair of electrons from Cl- to form AlCl4-.

What is the conjugate base of HCO3-?

The conjugate base of HCO3- is formed by removing one proton from the molecule.

What affects the rate of dissolution?

The rate at which a solid dissolves in a liquid is called the rate of dissolution. This rate depends on several factors. One key factor is the surface area of the solid. The bigger the surface area, the faster the dissolution.

What is miscibility?

Miscibility refers to the ability of two liquids to mix together and form a homogeneous solution. Liquids that are miscible mix in any proportion, while liquids that are immiscible do not mix.

Ideal Solution

An ideal solution is a hypothetical solution where the interactions between the molecules of the solute and solvent are identical to the interactions between like molecules. This leads to no change in volume or enthalpy upon mixing.

Raoult's Law

Raoult's Law states that the partial vapor pressure of a component in an ideal solution is equal to the vapor pressure of the pure component multiplied by its mole fraction in the solution.

Positive Deviation from Raoult's Law

A positive deviation from Raoult's Law occurs when the vapor pressure of the solution is higher than predicted by Raoult's Law. This happens when the interactions between the solute and solvent molecules are weaker than those between the molecules of the pure components.

Negative Deviation from Raoult's Law

A negative deviation from Raoult's Law occurs when the vapor pressure of the solution is lower than predicted by Raoult's Law. This happens when the interactions between the solute and solvent molecules are stronger than those between the molecules of the pure components.

Rate of Dissolution

In chemistry, the rate of dissolution is how quickly a solid solute dissolves in a liquid solvent. Various factors affect this rate, including the intermolecular forces between the solute and solvent molecules. If these interactions are strong, the rate of dissolution is likely to be faster.

Surface Area and Dissolution

The surface area of a solid solute is the total area of its exposed surfaces. A larger surface area allows for more contact points between the solvent and the solute, which increases the rate of dissolution. Imagine a sugar cube versus powdered sugar; the powder will dissolve faster because its surface area is much larger.

Henry's Law

This law describes a direct relationship between the pressure of a gas and its solubility in a liquid. In simpler terms, higher pressure forces more gas molecules into the liquid, increasing its solubility. Think about how soda fizzes when you open the bottle; the pressure is released, and the gas escapes, decreasing its solubility.

Non-volatile Solute Vapor Pressure

Non-volatile solutes have a very low vapor pressure, meaning they don't readily evaporate. When such a solute is added to a solvent, it disrupts the solvent molecules' ability to escape into the gas phase. Therefore, the vapor pressure of the solvent decreases. Think of a salt solution; the salt doesn't evaporate as easily, making the solution less likely to evaporate compared to just water.
