The parts of a solution are mixed evenly. VOCABULARY A mixture is a combination of substances, such as a fruit salad. Remember to use the The ingredients of any mixture can be physically separated from each strategy of your choice. You might use a four square other because they are not chemically changed—they are still the same diagram for solution . substances. Sometimes, however, a mixture is so completely blended that its ingredients cannot be identified as different substances. A solution is a type of mixture, called a homogeneous mixture, that is the same throughout. A solution can be physically separated, but all portions of a solution have the same properties. If you stir sand into a glass of water, you can identify the sand as a separate substance that falls to the bottom of the glass. Sand in water is a mixture that is not a solution. If you stir sugar into a glass of water, you cannot identify the sugar as a separate substance. Sugar in water is a common solution, as are examples such as seawater, gasoline, and the liquid part of your blood. Chapter 4: Solutions 111 DB ¡ ¢ £ ¨ ¥ ¦ § Solutes and Solvents reading tip Like other mixtures, a solution has definite components. A solute The words solute and solvent (SAHL-yoot) is a substance that is dissolved to make a solution. are both related to the Latin When a solute dissolves, it separates into individual particles. A solvent word solvere, which means “to loosen.” is a substance that dissolves a solute. Because a solute dissolves into individual particles in a solvent, it is not possible to identify the solute and solvent as different substances when they form a solution. In a solution of table salt and water, the salt is the solute and the water is the solvent. In the cells of your body, substances such as calcium ions and sugar are solutes, and water is the solvent. Water is the most common and important solvent, but other substances can also be solvents. For example, if you have ever used an oil-based paint you know that water will not clean the paintbrushes. Instead, a solvent like turpentine must be used. Check Your Reading What is the difference between a solute and a solvent? Types of Solutions Many solutions are made of solids dissolved in liquids. However, solutes, solvents, and solutions can be gases, liquids, or solids. For example, oxygen, a gas, is dissolved in seawater. The bubbles in carbonated drinks come from the release of carbon dioxide gas that was dissolved in the drink. Gas Solution In some solutions, both the solute and the solvent are in the Air is oxygen same physical state. Vinegar, for example, is a solution of acetic and other gases dissolved in acid in water. In a solution of different liquids, it may be difficult nitrogen. to say which substance is the solute and which is the solvent. In general, the substance present in the greater amount is the solvent. Since there is more water than acetic acid in vinegar, water is the solvent and acetic acid is the solute. Although you may usually think of a solution as a liquid, Solid Solution Bronze consists solid solutions also exist. For example, bronze is a solid of tin dissolved solution in which tin is the solute and copper is the solvent. in copper. Solid solutions are not formed as solids. Instead, the solvent metal is heated until it melts and becomes a liquid. Then the solute is added, and the substances are thoroughly mixed together. When the mixture cools, it is a solid solution. Solutions made of combinations of gases are also common. Liquid Solution The air you breathe is a solution. Because nitrogen makes up Water often contains many the largest portion of air, it is the solvent. Other gases present, dissolved such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, are solutes. substances. When substances in a solution are in the same physical state, which is the solvent? DB 112 Unit: Chemical Interactions ¡ ¢ £ © ¥ ¦ § Solutions SKILL FOCUS How can you separate the parts of a solution? Observing PROCEDURE 1 Draw a solid black circular region 6 cm in diameter around the point of the filter. MATERIALS • black marker 2 Place the filter, point up, over the top of the bottle. • coffee filter • plastic bottle Squeeze several drops of water onto the point of the filter. 3 • eyedropper 4 Observe the filter once every minute for 10 minutes. • tap water Record your observations. TIME 15 minutes WHAT DO YOU THINK? • What happened to the ink on the filter? • Identify, in general, the solutes and the solution in this investigation. CHALLENGE Relate your observations of the ink and water on the coffee filter to the properties of solutions. Suspensions When you add flour to water, the mixture turns cloudy, and you cannot see through it. This mixture is not a solution but a suspension. In a suspension, the particles are larger than those found in a solution. Instead of dissolving, these larger particles turn the liquid cloudy. Sometimes you can separate the components of a suspension by filtering the mixture. dissolved particle suspended particle solvent solvent Solution Dissolved particles cannot be identified as a substance different Suspension Particles that do not from the solvent. dissolve make a suspension look cloudy. Chapter 4: Solutions 113 DB ¡ ¢ £ ¥ ¦ § Solvent and solute particles interact. The parts of a solution—that is, the solute and the solvent—can be physically separated because they are not changed into new substances. However, individual particles of solute and solvent do interact. When a solid dissolves in a liquid, the particles of the solute are surrounded by particles of the liquid. The solute particles become evenly distributed through the solvent. The way in which a solid compound dissolves in a liquid depends on the type of bonds in the compound. Ionic compounds such as table salt (NaCl) split apart into individual ions. When table salt dissolves in water, the sodium and chloride ions separate, and each ion is surrounded by water molecules. When a covalent compound such as table sugar (C 12 H22 O11 ) dissolves, each molecule stays together and is surrounded by solvent molecules. The general processes that take place when ionic compounds dissolve and when covalent compounds dissolve are shown below. How Solutes Dissolve Ionic compounds separate into ions. Covalent compounds separate into individual molecules. ionic compound covalent compound added to solvent added to solvent Ionic Compound Dissolved in Solvent Covalent Compound Dissolved in Solvent What difference between the two illustrations tells you whether a compound is ionic or covalent? DB 114 Unit: Chemical Interactions ¡ ¢ £ ¥ ¦ § Properties of solvents change in solutions. In every solution—solid, liquid, and gas—solutes change the physical properties of a solvent. Therefore, a solution’s physical properties differ from the physical properties of the pure solvent. The amount of solute in the solution determines how much the physical properties of the solvent are changed. Lowering the Freezing Point Recall that the freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid becomes a solid. The freezing point of a liquid solvent decreases—becomes lower—when a solute is dissolved in it. For example, pure water freezes at 0°C (32°F) under normal conditions. When a solute is dissolved in reminder water, the resulting solution has a freezing point below 0°C. In temperature measure- ments, C stands for Lowering the freezing point of water can be very useful in winter. “Celsius” and F stands Road crews spread salt on streets and highways during snowstorms for “Fahrenheit.” because salt lowers the freezing point of water. When snow mixes with salt on the roads, a saltwater solution that does not freeze at 0°C is formed. The more salt that is used, the lower the freezing point of the solution. Since salt dissolves in the small amount of water usually present on the surface of ice, it helps to melt any ice already present on the roads. However, there is a limit to salt’s effective- ness because there is a limit to how much will dissolve. No matter how much salt is used, once the temperature goes below –21°C (–6°F), the melted ice will freeze again. Check Your Reading How does the freezing point of a solvent change when a solute is dissolved in it? Making ice cream also depends on lowering the freezing point of a solvent. Most hand-cranked ice cream makers hold the liquid ice cream ingredients in a canister surrounded by a mixture of salt and ice. The salt added to the ice lowers the freezing point of this mixture. This causes the ice to melt—absorbing heat from its surroundings, including the ice cream ingredients.

Why is most “gold” or “silver” jewelry made out of gold or silver alloyed with copper, i.e, what advantages does copper offer? We have two major considerations in jewelry alloying: strength and cost. Copper additions obviously lower the cost of gold or silver (Note that 14K gold is actually only about 50% gold). Copper and other alloy additions also strengthen pure gold and pure silver. In both gold and silver, copper will strengthen the material by either solid solution strengthening (substitutional Cu atoms in the Au or Ag crystal), or by formation of second phase in the microstructure. 2.

The phases we considered included a structure with LS6 stoichiometry for which we could not identify an atomic analogue. Snapshots of this structure from various perspectives are shown in Fig. S1. FIG. S1: Unit cell of the binary LS6 superlattice structure described in this paper. Note that both species exhibit long-range crystalline order.

  • Exercise and Cellular Respiration Lab
    California State University of Bakersfield, Department of Chemistry Exercise and Cellular Respiration Lab Standards: MS-LS1-7 Develop a model to describe how food is rearranged through chemical reactions forming new molecules that support growth and/or release energy as this matter moves through an organism. Introduction: I. Background Information. Cellular respiration (see chemical reaction below) is a chemical reaction that occurs in your cells to create energy; when you are exercising your muscle cells are creating ATP to contract. Cellular respiration requires oxygen (which is breathed in) and creates carbon dioxide (which is breathed out). This lab will address how exercise (increased muscle activity) affects the rate of cellular respiration. You will measure 3 different indicators of cellular respiration: breathing rate, heart rate, and carbon dioxide production. You will measure these indicators at rest (with no exercise) and after 1 and 2 minutes of exercise. Breathing rate is measured in breaths per minute, heart rate in beats per minute, and carbon dioxide in the time it takes bromothymol blue to change color. Carbon dioxide production can be measured by breathing through a straw into a solution of bromothymol blue (BTB). BTB is an acid indicator; when it reacts with acid it turns from blue to yellow. When carbon dioxide reacts with water, a weak acid (carbonic acid) is formed (see chemical reaction below). The more carbon dioxide you breathe into the BTB solution, the faster it will change color to yellow. The purpose of this lab activity is to analyze the effect of exercise on cellular respiration.

  • Phase Transitions in Multicomponent Systems
    Physics 127b: Statistical Mechanics Phase Transitions in Multicomponent Systems The Gibbs Phase Rule Consider a system with n components (different types of molecules) with r phases in equilibrium. The state of each phase is defined by P,T and then (n − 1) concentration variables in each phase. The phase equilibrium at given P,T is defined by the equality of n chemical potentials between the r phases. Thus there are n(r − 1) constraints on (n − 1)r + 2 variables. This gives the Gibbs phase rule for the number of degrees of freedom f f = 2 + n − r A Simple Model of a Binary Mixture Consider a condensed phase (liquid or solid). As an estimate of the coordination number (number of nearest neighbors) think of a cubic arrangement in d dimensions giving a coordination number 2d. Suppose there are a total of N molecules, with fraction xB of type B and xA = 1 − xB of type A. In the mixture we assume a completely random arrangement of A and B. We just consider “bond” contributions to the internal energy U, given by εAA for A − A nearest neighbors, εBB for B − B nearest neighbors, and εAB for A − B nearest neighbors. We neglect other contributions to the internal energy (or suppose them unchanged between phases, etc.). Simple counting gives the internal energy of the mixture 2 2 U = Nd(xAεAA + 2xAxBεAB + xBεBB) = Nd{εAA(1 − xB) + εBBxB + [εAB − (εAA + εBB)/2]2xB(1 − xB)} The first two terms in the second expression are just the internal energy of the unmixed A and B, and so the second term, depending on εmix = εAB − (εAA + εBB)/2 can be though of as the energy of mixing.

  • Grade 6 Science Mechanical Mixtures Suspensions
    Grade 6 Science Week of November 16 – November 20 Heterogeneous Mixtures Mechanical Mixtures Mechanical mixtures have two or more particle types that are not mixed evenly and can be seen as different kinds of matter in the mixture. Obvious examples of mechanical mixtures are chocolate chip cookies, granola and pepperoni pizza. Less obvious examples might be beach sand (various minerals, shells, bacteria, plankton, seaweed and much more) or concrete (sand gravel, cement, water). Mechanical mixtures are all around you all the time. Can you identify any more right now? Suspensions Suspensions are mixtures that have solid or liquid particles scattered around in a liquid or gas. Common examples of suspensions are raw milk, salad dressing, fresh squeezed orange juice and muddy water. If left undisturbed the solids or liquids that are in the suspension may settle out and form layers. You may have seen this layering in salad dressing that you need to shake up before using them. After a rain fall the more dense particles in a mud puddle may settle to the bottom. Milk that is fresh from the cow will naturally separate with the cream rising to the top. Homogenization breaks up the fat molecules of the cream into particles small enough to stay suspended and this stable mixture is now a colloid. We will look at colloids next. Solution, Suspension, and Colloid: https://youtu.be/XEAiLm2zuvc Colloids Colloids: https://youtu.be/MPortFIqgbo Colloids are two phase mixtures. Having two phases means colloids have particles of a solid, liquid or gas dispersed in a continuous phase of another solid, liquid, or gas.
