What makes up a solution? How do you determine what is the solute and solvent?
What makes up a solution? How do you determine what is the solute and solvent?
A solution consists of a solute (the substance being dissolved) and a solvent (the substance doing the dissolving). The solute is typically present in a smaller amount than the solvent. You can determine the solute and solvent by identifying which component is present in a smaller amount or by considering which component is being dissolved in the other.
What is the difference between ionic and covalent compound dissolution?
What is the difference between ionic and covalent compound dissolution?
- Ionic compounds dissolve in water and covalent compounds do not.
- Ionic compounds dissolve by forming interactions between solute and solvent molecules. Covalent compounds dissolve by breaking apart into their constituent ions.
- Ionic compounds dissolve by breaking apart into their constituent ions. Covalent compounds dissolve by forming interactions between solute and solvent molecules. (correct)
- Ionic compounds dissolve by reacting with water, while covalent compounds do not react with water.
How do intermolecular forces play a role in solutions?
How do intermolecular forces play a role in solutions?
Intermolecular forces (IMFs) influence the solubility of substances. Strong IMFs between solute and solvent molecules promote dissolution, as they help overcome the forces holding the solute together. Conversely, weak or incompatible IMFs can hinder solubility.
