Ch. 2-2 Properties of Water
Water Molecule • Cohesion – water molecules stick together • Adhesion – water molecules stick to other substances
Mixture • Mixture – material composed of two or more elements or compounds • Mix together but do not chemically combine • Example – salt and pepper, cinnamon and sugar, air • Solutions and suspensions are mixtures
Solutions • All components are evenly distributed • Solute – what is being dissolved • Solvent – what is dissolving • Example: Saltwater • What is the solvent? • What is the solute? • Example: Kool-aid • What is the solvent? • What are the solutes?
Suspensions • Water and nondissolved material • Example: Italian salad dressing • What doesn’t dissolve? • Example: orange juice • What doesn’t dissolve?
Acids, Bases, and pH • pH scale – measures how acidic or basic a solution is • Goes from 0-14 • Acids • 0-6.9 on the pH scale • When dissolved, form hydrogen (H+) ions • Example: HCl • Bases • 7.1 – 14 on the pH scale • When dissolved, form hydroxide (OH-) ions • Example: NaOH
Acids, Bases, and pH • The pH scale indicates strength • The farther from 7, the stronger it is
