Study Notes

Colligative Properties

Abnormal molar masses are observed when the molecular mass of a substance determined by studying colligative properties is different from the theoretically expected value.
Van't Hoff factor (i) is used to calculate the extent of association or dissociation of a solute in a solution.
i = total number of moles of particles after association (dissociation) / number of moles of particles before association (dissociation)

Vapour Pressure

Vapour pressure increases with increasing temperature.
Clausius-Clapeyron equation: ln(p2/p1) = (ΔHvap/R) (1/T1 – 1/T2), where ΔHvap is the enthalpy of vaporisation of the liquid.
Relative lowering of vapour pressure of a solvent can be calculated using the formula: pSolution = pSolvent - (w1 - w2) / w3.

Solutions and Colligative Properties

Important formulae:
- Mole fraction of A (xA) = nA / (nA + nB)
- Mole fraction of B (xB) = nB / (nA + nB)
- Molarity (M) = moles of solute / volume of solution in litres
- Molality (m) = moles of solute / mass of solvent in kg
- Normality (N) = gram equivalents of solute / volume of solution in litres
- Normality × Equivalent mass (solute) = Molarity × Molar mass (solute)

Properties of Solutions

Ideal solutions:
- ΔHmixing = 0
- ΔVmixing = 0
- Intermolecular attractive forces between A-A and B-B are nearly equal to those between A-B
Non-ideal solutions:
- Do not obey Raoult's law over the entire range of concentration
- ΔHmixing > 0 or ΔHmixing < 0
Azeotropes:
- Binary mixtures having the same composition in liquid and vapour phase
- Boil at a constant temperature
- Form minimum or maximum boiling azeotropes depending on the composition

Solubility

Solubility of a solid in a liquid is its maximum amount that can be dissolved in a specified amount of solvent.
