Define colloidal dispersion.
A true solution with particles suspended in the solvent.
Small particles suspended in solvent; not a true solution.
A heterogenous mixture of an immiscible solute and solvent.
In what type of phase might you find colloidal dispersion?
Solid
Liquid
Gas
Mixture
What is the Tyndall effect?
The inability of oil to mix with water.
How the tides effect a solution's ability to mix.
The scattering of light due to colloids.
Which of the following would be a hydrophilic aqueous colloidal dispersion?
Oil
Protein
Salt Water
Dichloromethane
Which of the following would be a hydrophobic aqueous colloidal dispersion?
Oil
Protein
Salt Water
Dichloromethane
What is coagulation in relation to colloids?
The thickening (clumping) of particles in a solution due to the addition of electrolytes.
The reason that we need soap to wash oil off of our hands.
The process by which we can remove colloid particles from solutions.
Which of the following factors DO NOT affect reaction rates?
Nature of reacting species
State of reactants
Density
Temperature
Concentration
What does a catalyst do?
Increases the rate of reaction without undergoing a permanent change.
Decreases the rate of reaction and undergoes a permanent physical change.
It does nothing. They are pointless.
Why do we need soap to wash oil off of things?
We need soap because soap has both hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts.
We need soap because water is not strong enough to wash off oil.
We need soap because oil is hydrophobic (water-fearing).
We need soap because soap particles are larger than water.
Why do colloid particles seem to float in solution?
They are too small to settle out by gravity.
They are anti-gravitational particles.
They disperse so that they are equidistant from each other.
Which of the following is the definition of solute?
A species formed and used up; will not appear in rate law.
The minor component (is dissolved).
Small particles suspended in solvent, not true solution.
A solid catalyst in an aqueous reaction.
Which of the following is the definition for the solvent?
A detailed sequence of reaction steps.
A solution that contains less than the optimal amount of solute.
When all reactants and products are in the same phase.
The major component (retains phase).
Which of the following is the definition for solution?
Energy which reacting species must have to form the transition state.
The slowest step in a reaction.
A homogenous mixture.
A substance that speeds up rate without permanent change.
When solids and liquids are not included in the equilibrium constant.
Which of the following is the definition for an unsaturated solution?
A detailed sequence of reaction steps.
A solution that contains less than the optimal amount of solute.
When all reactants and products are in the same phase.
The major component (retains phase).
Which of the following is the definition for a supersaturated solution?
If a system at equilibrium is disturbed, it will react in such a way as to counteract the disturbance and return to equilibrium.
(Activated complex) state corresponding to the highest energy along the reaction coordinate.
A solution that has more solute dissolved that optimal (precipitate forms).
A catalyst in the same phase as the reaction.
Which of the following is the definition for a saturated solution?
The maximum amount of dissolved solute at a given temperature.
A biological catalyst.
The number of particles (ions) a solute breaks into.
When intermolecular forces between solute and solvent are same as between separated components (no energy change upon solution formation).
