Solutions

• Overview
• Identifying the solute
• Identifying the solvent
• Identifying different water mixtures (Colloids, Suspensions)

Solvation, Dissociation, and Electrolytes

• Overview
• Describing the process by which dissolving happens
• Identifying an electrolyte vs. a nonelectrolyte
• Identifying electrolytic solutions
• Identifying electrolytes vs. nonelectrolytes based on particle diagrams

Solubility Rules

• Overview
• Predicting solubility based on intermolecular forces (i.e., “like dissolves like.”)
• Predicting solubility of ionic compounds in water
• Predicting formation of a precipitate

Factors that affect Rate of Solubility

• Overview
• Describing temperature and pressure effect on solids
• Describing temperature and pressure effect on gases
• Recognizing effect of stirring, pulverizing, heating on rate of solubility

Gas Solubility (use graphs)

• Overview
• Interpreting Henry’s Law

Solubility Curves
