1.

If more salt was added to an unsaturated saltwater solution, how will the concentration of the solution change?

a)

The concentration of the solution will decrease because the salt was added; this resulted in a smaller volume of solution.

b)

The concentration will first increase then decrease because both the salt and the water evaporated; first, only the water evaporates, but later, the salt also begins to evaporate.

c)

The concentration of the solution will increase because the salt was added; this resulted in a solution with the larger amount of salt but a same volume of water.

d)

The concentration of the solution stays the same because the salt evaporated with the water; this resulted in a solution with the same mass of solute per unit volume of solvent.

2.

DeYon prepares two solutions and illustrates them, as shown below. The dots represent solute particles.


DeYon wants to test the conductivity of each solution. Prior to carrying out the investigation, he needs to identify the variables being controlled and the variables being changed between the two solutions. Which identification of the variables is correct?

a)

The volume of the solution and the concentration of the solution are being changed between the two solutions, but the number of solute particles is being held constant.

b)

The volume of the solution and the number of solute particles are being changed between the two solutions, but the concentration of the solution is being held constant.

c)

The number of solute particles is being changed between the two solutions, but the volume and concentration of the solution is being held constant.

d)

The number of solute particles and the concentration of the solution are being changed between the two solutions, but the volume is being held constant.

3.

Dr. Gyorgyi is investigating which type of medicine delivery system, a solid pill or a scoop of powder, would relieve pain faster. Which hypothesis should Dr. Gyorgyi develop given prior knowledge about surface area?

a)

Powders have more surface area and will dissolve in the bloodstream faster

b)

Powders have less surface area and will dissolve in the bloodstream faster

c)

Tablets have more surface area and will take longer to dissolve into the bloodstream

d)

Tablets have less surface area and will enter the bloodstream without dissolving

4.

Where should you keep your glass of soda if you want it to remain fizzy?

a)

On the counter so that the warmer temperature can allow the gas to remain dissolved within the liquid of the soda more easily.

b)

On the counter so that the warmer temperature can allow the liquid of the soda to remain dissolved within the gas more easily.

c)

In the refrigerator so that the colder temperature can allow the gas to remain dissolved within the liquid of the soda more easily.

d)

In the refrigerator so that the colder temperature can allow the liquid of the soda to remain dissolved within the gas more easily.

5.

44 g

c)

108 g

d)

126 g

8.

Based on the solubility curve of carbon dioxide, which statement would not be accurate about soda?

a)

Cold soda will taste more bubbly because the solubility of carbon dioxide in water is higher at higher temperatures.

b)

Cold soda will taste less bubbly, because the solubility of carbon dioxide in water is lower at lower temperatures.

c)

Warm soda will taste more bubbly, because the solubility of carbon dioxide in water is higher at higher temperatures

d)

Warm soda will taste less bubbly, because the solubility of carbon dioxide is lower at higher temperatures.

9.

Ammonia (NH3) dissolved in water is heated in a beaker. Initially there 60 grams were dissolved in 100 grams of water.


What would happen if the temperature reached 90℃ and why?

a)

about 50 more grams of ammonia would be able to dissolve as the increase in temperature caused the solubility to decrease.

b)

about 50 grams of ammonia would come out of solution as the increase in temperature caused the solubility to increase.

c)

about 50 more grams of ammonia would be able to dissolve as the increase in temperature caused the solubility to increase.

d)

about 50 grams of ammonia would come out of solution as the increase in temperature caused the solubility to decrease.
