Acid-Bases-Solutions

Front

What is the effect of higher temperature on the solubility of solids in water?

Back

Higher temperature generally increases the solubility of solids in water.

Front

What is the impact of stirring on the dissolution of materials in water?

Back

Stirring the water decreases the amount of time it takes for materials to dissolve.

Front

How can you increase the conductivity of a solution?

Back

By increasing the concentration of ions in the solution.

Front

What property of a solution does NOT change with the addition of carbon dioxide?

Back

The phase of the solution remains unchanged.

Front

What are the methods to help dissolve a solute?

Back

Heating it up, stirring it, and crushing it all help to dissolve a solute.

Front

Define solubility.

Back

Solubility is the ability of a substance to dissolve in a solvent, typically expressed in grams of solute per 100 grams of solvent.

Front

What is an acid?

Back

An acid is a substance that donates protons (H+) in a solution and has a pH less than 7.

Front

What is a base?

Back

A base is a substance that accepts protons (H+) or donates hydroxide ions (OH-) in a solution and has a pH greater than 7.

Front

What is the pH scale?

Back

The pH scale measures the acidity or basicity of a solution, ranging from 0 (very acidic) to 14 (very basic), with 7 being neutral.

Front

What happens to the pH of water when carbon dioxide is dissolved in it?

Back

The pH of water decreases, making it more acidic.
