Step-by-step solution for: Solute & Solvent Identification Activity #1 - Mixtures
Problem Analysis:
The task involves identifying and matching terms related to solutes, solvents, and mixtures. The worksheet is divided into two sections: Fill-in-the-Blank and Matching. Let's solve each section step by step.
---
Section 1: Fill-in-the-Blank
#### Question:
A solvent is a substance that ____________ a solute, resulting in a ____________. A solvent is usually a ____________, but can also be a solid, or ____________. The quantity of ____________ that can dissolve in a specific ____________ (amount) of solvent varies with ____________.
#### Solution:
1. A solvent is a substance that ____________ a solute, resulting in a _____________.
- A solvent dissolves a solute, resulting in a solution.
- Answer: dissolves, solution
2. A solvent is usually a ____________, but can also be a solid, or _____________.
- Solvents are typically liquids, but they can also be solids or gases.
- Answer: liquid, gas
3. The quantity of ____________ that can dissolve in a specific ____________ (amount) of solvent varies with _____________.
- The quantity of solute that can dissolve in a specific volume of solvent varies with temperature.
- Answer: solute, volume, temperature
#### Final Fill-in-the-Blank Answer:
- A solvent is a substance that dissolves a solute, resulting in a solution. A solvent is usually a liquid, but can also be a solid, or gas. The quantity of solute that can dissolve in a specific volume (amount) of solvent varies with temperature.

Section 2: Matching
#### Instructions:
Match the terms on the left with their definitions on the right.
#### Definitions:
- a. The amount of a substance per unit volume
- b. The maximum amount of a solute in a mixture
- c. The substance of a greater amount in a mixture
- d. A heterogeneous mixture with the largest particle size
- e. A combination of two or more pure substances
- f. A homogeneous mixture that is uniformly blended
- g. The solid that forms from an over-saturated solution
- h. Heterogeneous mixture with a smaller particle size
- i. The substance of a lesser amount in a mixture
- j. Less than the maximum amount of a solute in a mixture
#### Matching:
1. Solute:
- Definition: The substance of a lesser amount in a mixture.
- Match: i
2. Solvent:
- Definition: The substance of a greater amount in a mixture.
- Match: c
3. Solution:
- Definition: A homogeneous mixture that is uniformly blended.
- Match: f
4. Mixture:
- Definition: A combination of two or more pure substances.
- Match: e
5. Suspension:
- Definition: A heterogeneous mixture with the largest particle size.
- Match: d
6. Colloid:
- Definition: Heterogeneous mixture with a smaller particle size.
- Match: h
7. Concentration:
- Definition: The amount of a substance per unit volume.
- Match: a
8. Saturated:
- Definition: The maximum amount of a solute in a mixture.
- Match: b
9. Unsaturated:
- Definition: Less than the maximum amount of a solute in a mixture.
- Match: j
10. Precipitate:
- Definition: The solid that forms from an over-saturated solution.
- Match: g
#### Final Matching Answer:
1. Solute → i
2. Solvent → c
3. Solution → f
4. Mixture → e
5. Suspension → d
6. Colloid → h
7. Concentration → a
8. Saturated → b
9. Unsaturated → j
10. Precipitate → g

Final Answer:
- Fill-in-the-Blank:
- A solvent is a substance that dissolves a solute, resulting in a solution. A solvent is usually a liquid, but can also be a solid, or gas. The quantity of solute that can dissolve in a specific volume (amount) of solvent varies with temperature.
- Matching:
1. Solute → i
2. Solvent → c
3. Solution → f
4. Mixture → e
5. Suspension → d
6. Colloid → h
7. Concentration → a
8. Saturated → b
9. Unsaturated → j
10. Precipitate → g
Boxed Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\text{Fill-in-the-Blank: dissolve, solution, liquid, gas, solute, volume, temperature}
}
\]
\[
\boxed{
\text{Matching: 1-i, 2-c, 3-f, 4-e, 5-d, 6-h, 7-a, 8-b, 9-j, 10-g}
}
\]
