1. Concentration and Solubility 8.2 TEACHER 8.2

2. What does concentration of a solution mean? Concentration of a solution means - the amount (quantity) of solute that is dissolved in a certain amount of solvent. Example: For a solution of salt water you would ask, “how much salt is dissolved in the water?” The more salt, the more concentrated the salt water solution.

3. Two ways t o describe concentration 1.Qualitatively: 2.Quantitatively:

4. Saturated Solution Forms when no more solute will dissolve in a specific amount of solvent at certain temperature..\Animations Unit 3\soluble-salts_en.jar

5. Solubility expressed as g/L [ see table page 264] SubstanceState (of solute)Solubility (g/L) Is this Qualitatively or Quantitatively described???? Answer:

6. Rate of Dissolving… What factors affect the rate of dissolving? 1.Size of the solute 2.Temperature 3.Pressure (for gases) 4.Stirring

7. Size of Solute The smaller the solute particles, the quicker they will dissolve faster

8. Temperature The higher the temperature, the faster the solute will dissolve faster

9. Pressure (solubility of Gases) Gases are more soluble in liquids under higher pressure (see page 267) Opened bottle decreases pressure and “bubbles” come out of solution

10. Stirring increase the rate of dissolving
