Solution – a
homogeneous mixture of two or more
Solute – what’s being dissolved
Solvent – what’s doing the dissolving
Solutions don’t always have to be solid in a liquid.
Gas in liquid or solid in solid (alloys) are also called
Electrolyte – when dissolved in water, conducts electricity
(NaCl, ionic compounds)
How can you make a solid dissolve faster?
1. Increase surface area
(cut it into smaller pieces)
2. Agitate solution
(stir or shake it)
Saturated solution – has the maximum amount of
dissolved solute
(any more you add falls to the bottom)
Unsaturated solution –has less solute than it can hold
Supersaturated
Solution – contains
more dissolved solute than the solvent can
“Like dissolves like”
Polar molecules dissolve in polar molecules
Nonpolar dissolve in nonpolar
Miscible – substances dissolve in one another
(oil in gasoline)
Immiscible –
substances don’t

What happens to the boiling
point as you add salt to water? What happens to the freezing
Adding a solute to a pure
substance raises the boiling point and lowers the freezing point of the substance!
(and lowers
Salt will lower the freezing
point of a solution more than sugar. WHY?
b/c salt is an electrolyte!
NaCl(s) Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
The more ions in solution the lower the freezing point!
NaCl produces 2 ions but
CaCl2 produces 3 ions!
NaCl Na+ + Cl
Colloids – large particles that “hang” in solvent (not
dissolved) but cannot be
Tyndall Effect: In a colloid
particles will scatter light and make a light beam “visible”.
Suspension – very large

Do you think energy is absorbed or released
when chemical bonds are broken?
Breaking bonds – endothermic

released when bonds
were made than took to break them the overall
