Module 2 : Aqueous Solutions
Vocabulary
① Autrionization compounds ability to react itself to form ions .




②heat capacity heat able to absorb before it vaporizes or heat up

③electronegativity atoms
ability to attract esto itself win a sovalent bond

⑪ non-covalent forces forces form bown molecules

⑤ partial charges unequal sharing of e>
⑥ dipole dipole 2 molecules
align their dipoles to gen . an attraction

① hydrogen bonds strongest dipole-dipole interaction
⑧ hydrogen donor bonded
covalently w O ,
N, F
⑨ hydrogen acceptor non-bonded -

on a separate O , N , F


⑱ strong acids dissolve in water : Ionize (hydrochloric acid : sulfric acid)
⑪Strong bases dissolve in water : Ionize (sodium hydroxide : Calcium hydroxide)
⑫ weak acids dissolve in water : Partially ionize
⑬ Weak bases dissolve in water : Partially ionize
⑪Proton acceptor gets Ht , to reform weak acid

⑮ proton donor generates H+

⑭ Buffer agreous system that resist changes in pH when Small amts of weak acids or


Weak bases are added bic Weak acid or conjugate base can react ,
neutralize the

addition of either acid or base
