REACTIONS SYNTHESIS MECHANISMS
STEREOCHEMISTRY
◉ Solute
Answer: substance dissolved in a solution
◉ Solvent
Answer: substance that does the dissolving
◉ Electrolyte
Answer: substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that
conduct electricity
◉ Nonelectrolyte
Answer: substance that dissolves in water but does not conduct
electricity.
◉ saturated solution
Answer: solution that contains the maximum amount of dissolved
solute at a given temp (on the line on a solubility curve
, ◉ unsaturated solution
Answer: a solution that contains less solute than a saturated
solution at a given temp (under the line on the solubility curve)
◉ supersaturated solution
Answer: solution that contains more dissolved solute than a
saturated solution under the same conditions.
◉ solubility
Answer: is amount of the given substance required to form a
saturated solution with a specific amount of solvent at a specific
temperature
◉ hydration
Answer: the solution process with water as the solvent
◉ immiscible
Answer: liquids that are not soluble in each other (ie oil and water)
◉ miscible
Answer: liquids that dissolve freely in one another ( ie alcohol and
water)
