How can the energy of the molecules of a solute and solvent be increased?
The energy of molecules in a solute and solvent can be increased by adding outside energy, say, heat, for instance.
Many laboratory preparations of solutions call for stirring the solvent while adding the solute. What is an effect of this procedure?
It brings the solute and solvent rapidly into contact.
Why moles solute before dilution equals moles solute after dilution?
This assumes you are using water (or whatever the original solvent is) to do the dilution so you are not adding more solute, only more solvent,
What effect does adding a solute to a solvent have on the freezing point of the solvent?
the temperature at which the solution freezes is lowered.
Adding more solute to a saturated aqueous solution causes?
Adding more solute to a saturated solution causes the solution to become supersaturated. In other words, the solvent does not completely mix with the solute.
What is the solute and solvent of antifreeze?
water is solvent and ethylene glycol is solute
What is the solute of antifreeze?
The solute of antifreeze is ethylene glycol, the solvent is water. -Answered by Santa Claus HO HO HO
What is the solvent and solute in antifreeze?
Ethylene gkycol can be a solute; water is the solvent.
How is massed conserved when adding a solute to a solvent?
If you weigh the solute, and then weigh the solvent, and then add the solute to the solvent and weigh the solution, you will find that the sum of the weights of the solute and solvent is equal to the weight of the resulting solution. So mass is conserved.
How can the energy of the molecules of a solute and solvent be increased?
The energy of molecules in a solute and solvent can be increased by adding outside energy, say, heat, for instance.
What is the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solute at a particular temperature?
This is known as the solubility of the solute in the solvent. When you reach the maximum it is know as the saturation concentration. Adding any more solute will not dissolve in the solvent.
Many laboratory preparations of solutions call for stirring the solvent while adding the solute. What is an effect of this procedure?
It brings the solute and solvent rapidly into contact.
What are two ways you can change the concetration of a solution?
Adding more solute or adding more solvent
A Solvent dissolves an ionic compound by?
the solvent the solute is the substance being dissolved and the solvent is the substance the solute dissolves in ie: adding sweet 'n' low to iced tea, the solute is the sweet 'n' low and the solute
What effect will the addition of a solute to the solvent have on the ability of the solvent molecules to escape from the surface of the solution?
by adding solvent, the ability of solvent molecules to escape(i.e its vapour pressure) will decrease.because the solute particles provide hinderance
If more solvent is added to a solution?
Adding solvent will make a solution more diluted. Think of it this way. Take water (solvent) and dissolve salt into it (solute). In order to dilute or increase the ratio of solvent to solute, you would add more water.
Why moles solute before dilution equals moles solute after dilution?
This assumes you are using water (or whatever the original solvent is) to do the dilution so you are not adding more solute, only more solvent,
