305773126molaritymoles of solute per volume of solution in liters
305773127mass percentthe percent by mass of a component of a mixture or of a given element in a compound
305773128mole fractionthe ratio of the number of moles of a given component in a mixture to the total number of moles in the mixture
305773129molalitynumber of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent in a solution
305773130enthalpy (heat) of solutionenthalpy change associated with the formation of the solution
305773131enthalpy (heat) of hydrationthe enthalpy from H2 (expanding solvent) and H3 (the solvent-solute interaction). It represents the enthapy change associated with the dispersal of a gaseous solute in water.
305773132Henry's Lawthe amount of a gas dissolved in a solution is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas above the solution
305773133thermal pollutionoxygen-depleting effect on lakes and rivers of using water for industrial cooling and returning it to its natural source at a higher temperature
305773134Raoult's Lawthe vapor pressure of a solution is directly proportional to the mole fraction of solvent present
305773135ideal solutionsolution whose vapor pressure is directly proportional to the mole fraction of solvent present
305773136colligative propertiesproperties of a solution that depend only on the number, an dnot on the identity of the solute particles
305773137molal boiling-point elevation constantconstant characteristic of a solvent that gives the change in boiling point as a function of solution molality; used in molecular weight determination
305773138molal freezing-point depression constantconstant characteristic of a solvent that gives the change in freezing point as a function of the solution molality; used in molecular weight determination
305773139normalitynumber of equivalents of a substance dissolved in a liter of solution
305773140semipermeable membranea membrane that allows solvent but not solute molecules to pass through
305773141osmosisthe flow of solvent into a solution through a semipermeable membrane
305773142osmotic pressure(pi) the pressure that must be applied to a solution to stop osmosis (pi = MRT)
305773143dialysisphenomenon in which a semipermeable membrane allows transfer of both solvent molecules and small solute molecules and ions
305773144isotonic solutionsolutions having identical osmotic pressure
305773145reverse osmosisprocess occurring when the external pressure on a solution causes a net flow of solvent through a semipermeable membrane from the solution to the solvent
305773146desalinationthe removal of dissolved salts from an aqueous solution
305773147Van't Hoff Factorthe ratio of moles of particles in solution to moles of solute dissolved
305773148ion pairingphenomenon occurring in solution when oppositely charged ions aggregate and behave as a single particle
305773149Tyndall effectthe scattering of light by particles in a suspension
305773150colloid (colloidal dispersion)a suspension of particles in a dispersing medium
305773151coagulationthe destruction of a colloid by causing particles to aggregate and settle out
