Question

Which of the following statements is/are true regarding solutions? a. If a solute is dissolved in water, then the resulting solution is considered aqueous. b. If two solutions are mixed and no chemical reaction occurs, then a net ionic equation cannot be written. c. If two clear solutions are mixed and then cloudiness results, this indicates that a precipitate formed.

Step 1

" This statement is true because an aqueous solution is a solution in which the solvent is water. Therefore, any solute that is dissolved in water results in an aqueous solution. We can write this in LaTeX as: \textbf{Statement a is True.} Show more…

Key Concepts

Aqueous Solutions

An aqueous solution is one in which water serves as the solvent. When a substance is dissolved in water, the solution is termed 'aqueous,' indicating that water is the medium in which the solute particles are dispersed.

Net Ionic Equations

Net ionic equations are representations of chemical reactions that include only the species that participate directly in the reaction, omitting the spectator ions. They are used to highlight the actual chemical change occurring in a solution.

Precipitation Reactions

Precipitation reactions occur when two aqueous solutions are mixed and form an insoluble solid called a precipitate. The formation of a cloudiness or turbidity in the mixture indicates that the ions in solution have reacted to form an insoluble compound.
