Front

What does it mean to dilute a solution?

Back

To lower the concentration of solute per solvent.

Front

What is a precipitate?

Back

An insoluble product formed during a chemical reaction.

Front

How do you calculate the number of moles in a solution?

Back

Moles = Molarity (M) × Volume (L).

Front

What is the definition of solubility?

Back

The maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature.

Front

What is a saturated solution?

Back

A solution that has reached its maximum concentration of solute at a given temperature.

Front

What factors affect solubility?

Back

Temperature, pressure, and the nature of the solute and solvent.

Front

What is the difference between a solute and a solvent?

Back

A solute is the substance that is dissolved, while a solvent is the substance that does the dissolving.

Front

What is molarity?

Back

Molarity is a measure of concentration, defined as moles of solute per liter of solution.
