meaning of precipitate
« on: February 05, 2009, 02:04:38 AM »
What is the meaning of the term precipitate and what conditions are required for a precipitate to form spontaneously in solution? Select all that apply.

[]The solution must be aqueous and at room temperature.

[X]A solid that forms in solution.

[]The solubility of a solute in solution must be exceeded.

[X]A precipitate will always form when two different solutions are mixed.

[X]A solid that dissolves in solution.

Please check if I chose the correct choices. Thanks in advance!
