CHM 2045 Lecture 3: 3
Document Summary
Ideal solutions: solutions made from compounds with similar properties: b. That is, the compounds can be interchanged without changing: spatial arrangement of molecules, intermolecular attractions. Ideally dilute solutions: solute molecules are completely separated from one another by solvent molecules so they have no interactions: b. mcat: you can assume it is ideally dilute, but you cannot automatically assume its ideal. Solutions: nonideal solutions: a. nonideal solutions: violate the tenets of both ideal solutions and ideally dilute solutions, colloids: definition and properties, a. Aside from gas-gas [edit: problem 439 says it can be. Solutions: solvation: a. solvation: when ionic compounds break into their respective ions, polar molecules use their dipole moments to attract the ions. Solvation: hydration: a. hydration: when several solvent molecules surround an ion, b. aqueous phase: something that is hydrated, c. hydration number. 27: number of water molecules needed to surround an ion, varies with size and charge of the ion, usually has values between 4 and 6.
