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.

What will adding solute to pure solvents cause?

Adding solute to pure solvents will cause the solute to dissolve in the solvent, forming a solution. This process can alter the properties of the solvent, such as its boiling point, freezing point, and osmotic pressure, depending on the amount and nature of the solute added.


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.


What is the process of mixing the solute with the solvent?

Dissolving


What are two ways you can change the concetration of a solution?

Adding more solute or adding more solvent


How does adding a solute affect the vapor pressure?

Adding a solute to a solvent lowers the vapor pressure of the solution compared to the pure solvent. This is due to the solute molecules occupying some of the surface area that would have been available for solvent molecules to evaporate. As a result, fewer solvent molecules are able to escape into the gas phase, leading to a decrease in vapor pressure.


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


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 happens when you add more solute to a solvent?

The addition of solute to a solvent concentrates the overall solution. A nice example is the laundry detergent. Some (less) concentrated detergents are less viscous, while highly concentrated detergents are more viscous (greater density). Also, adding more solute to a solvent can lower the freezing point.


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.


What can change solutions?

Adding more solute or more solvent can change a solution.


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.
