Quiz Thursday 27

Part 1: Terms

1. Saturated

- Undissolved as a solid on the bottom of a container, no matter how long you vigorously stir.

2. Solubility

- The maximum quantity of a substance that will dissolve in a certain quantity of water at a specified temperature. Example: 100 g.

3. Unsaturated Solution

-  A solution that contains less dissolved solute than the amount that the solvent can normally hold at that temperature.

4. Supersaturated:

- An unstable solution that contains more solute than could usually be dissolved at that temperature.

Part 2: Understanding

1. Understand constructing a solubility curve and be able to explain it. 

- The graphical representation of the relationship between solute solubility in water and temperature.

2. Sugar dissolving in hot tea but not cold.  
-It will dissolve in hot tea because the temperature can dissolve more of the solute the higher it is. The higher temperature causes an unsaturated solution
