Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Whether red paint is true solution or not has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
True solution is type of solution that contains molecular or ionic-sized constituent particles. Such particles are present in range of
Below mentioned are some properties of true solution.
1. It is composed of variable composition and has two components: solute and solvent.
2. Its nature is homogeneous.
3. It can either be colorless or colored but is generally transparent in appearance.
4. Separation of solute from solvent takes place by simple physical methods.
5. In true solutions, solute is uniformly distributed throughout whole solution.

- Ammonium chloride is a strong electrolyte. Draw a molecular-level picture of this substance after it dissolves in water.arrow_forwardWhat kinds of solute particles are present in a solution of an ionic compound? Of a molecular compound?arrow_forwardDistinguish between the solute and solvent in each of the following solutions: a saltwater [NaCl(aq)]; b sterling silver (92.5%Ag,7.5%Cu); c air about 80%N2,20%O2. On what do you base your distinctions? Sterling silver is an alloy of 92.5 silver and 7.5 another metal, usually copper.arrow_forward
- Use the term soluble, insoluble, or immiscible to describe the behavior of the following pairs of substances when they are shaken together: a.25mL of cooking oil and 25mL of vinegar the resulting mixture is cloudy and gradually separates into two layers. b.25mL of water and 10mL of rubbing alcohol the resulting mixture is clear and colorless. c.25mL of chloroform and 1g of roofing tar the resulting mixture is clear but dark brown in color.arrow_forward6-20 Give a familiar example of solutions of each of these types: (a) Liquid in liquid (b) Solid in liquid (c) Gas in liquid (d) Gas in gasarrow_forward6-21 Are mixtures of gases true solutions or heterogeneous mixtures? Explain.arrow_forward
- Every pure substance has a definite and fixed set of physical and chemical properties. A solution is prepared by dissolving one pure substance in another. Is it reasonable to expect that the solution will also have a definite and fixed set of properties that are different from the properties of either component? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardA patient has a “cholesterol count” of 214. Like manyblood-chemistry measurements,this result is measured inunits of milligrams per deciliter (mgdL1). Determine the molar concentration of cholesterol inthis patient’s blood, taking the molar mass of cholesterolto be 386.64gmol1. Estimate the molality of cholesterol in the patient’sblood. If 214 is a typical cholesterol reading among men inthe United States, determine the volume of such bloodrequired to furnish 8.10 g of cholesterol.arrow_forwardUse the term soluble, insoluble, or immiscible to describe the behavior of the following pairs of substances when they are shaken together: a.25mL of water and 1g of salt the resulting mixture is clear and colorless. b.25mL of water and 1g of solid silver chloride the resulting mixture is cloudy and solid settles out. c.25mL of water and 5mL of mineral oil the resulting mixture is cloudy and gradually separates into two layers.arrow_forward
