Pure Substance
A type of matter in which all particles are of the same chemical composition (element, compound)
Au (pure gold)
H2O
NaCl
Sugar (C6H12O6)
Ar
Which of the previous examples is a compound? an element?
Why is salt water not a pure substance?
Mixtures
Two or more pure substances physically mixed together.
Cannot be represented by a chemical formula.
Salt water
Sand and rocks
Air
Heterogeneous Mixture
A mixture where substances are not evenly distributed (non uniform)
oil and vinegar salad dressing
vegetable soup
sand and sugar
soil
granite
Homogeneous Mixture (Solution)
A mixture where all components are evenly distributed (uniform).
“same throughout”
salt water
gasoline
syrup
air
Practice
Identify each of the following as:
pure substance/mixture
element/compound
Definition of Solutions
A solution is a homogeneous mixture in which one substance is dissolved in another substance
The solute is(are) the substance(s) present in the lesser amount(s), dissolved by the solvent
The solvent is the substance present in the larger amount, does the dissolving/dissolves the solute
Solution
Formed when one substance is dissolved by another.
In order to be dissolved, a substance must be soluble.
A homogeneous mixture.
Particles are evenly distributed.
Parts cannot be separated by filtering.
Solvent—does the dissolving
Solute—dissolved by the solvent
Solution Practice
Identify the solute and solvent in each of the following:
Salt water
Iced tea
Coca-cola coke
Paint/paint thinner
Nail polish/acetone
Ethanol
Types of Solutions
Solid dissolved in a liquid.
Salt water
Gas dissolved in a liquid
Coca-cola
Two solids
Metal alloys: brass = copper + zinc
Two gases
Air: nitrogen (78% vol), oxygen (21% vol), argon (1% vol), carbon dioxide (0.03% vol).
In solutions of 2 solids or 2 gases, the solvent is the component present in largest quantity.
IONIC COMPOUNDS
Compounds in Aqueous Solution
Many reactions involve ionic compounds, especially reactions in water — aqueous solutions.
K+(aq) + MnO4-(aq)
KMnO4 in water
Aqueous Solutions
How do we know ions are present in aqueous solutions?
They are called ELECTROLYTES
HCl, MgCl2, and NaCl are strong electrolytes. They dissociate completely (or nearly so) into ions.
Aqueous Solutions
Some compounds dissolve in water but do not conduct electricity. They are called nonelectrolytes.
Examples include:
sugar
ethanol
ethylene glycol
nonelectrolyte
weak electrolyte
strong electrolyte
Electrolytes in the Body
Make your own |
50-70 g sugar One liter of warm water Pinch of salt 200ml of sugar free fruit squash Mix, cool and drink |
Carry messages to and from the brain as electrical signals
Maintain cellular function with the correct concentrations electrolytes
