#1
Front (Question)

Generally, solids get ___ _____ in water as you raise the temperature.

Back (Answer)

more soluble (they dissolve more)

#2
Front (Question)

Generally, gases get____ _____ in water as the temperature rises

Back (Answer)

less soluble

#3
Front (Question)

temperature and solubility of solids is directly or indirectly related?

Back (Answer)

directly. As temp rises so does solubility

#4
Front (Question)

temperature and solubility of gases is directly or indirectly related?

Back (Answer)

indirectly. As temp rises,solubility decreases

#5
Front (Question)

Why does gas become less soluble as temperature increases?

Back (Answer)

Gas molecules will move FASTER as temperature rises. When a gas is dissolved in liquid, raising the temp increases the gas molecules speed, which causes more and more gas molecules to escape/leave the liquid

#6
Front (Question)

Why is soda served cold and in pressured cans?

Back (Answer)

Bc more gas dissolves in liquid at low temp and more gas is disolved with more pressure. So more carbon dioxide can dissolve in a cold pressurized drink, giving it more fizz.

#7
Front (Question)

Pressure and solubility of gases is directly or indirectly related?

Back (Answer)

Directly. increased pressure = increased solubility

#8
Front (Question)

Henry’s Law

Back (Answer)

Pa=k*{A} Pa=gas’ pressure in the solution k= gas’ concentration in moles per liter (Molarity) {A}= constant that differs for each gas, solvent, temp

#9
Front (Question)

Instead of remembering Henry’s Law, just remember that if you increase/decrease pressure of a gas solution, you must also increase/decrease __________ by the same factor

Back (Answer)

concentration of gas molecuels
