Study Notes

Chemical Composition of Water

Water's chemical composition is H₂O

Colligative Properties of Solutions

Colligative properties depend on the number of solute particles, not their identity.
Important colligative properties include vapor-pressure lowering, boiling-point elevation, and freezing-point depression.

Normality

Normality (N) is the equivalent concentration.
N = Molarity (M) x n
n represents the number of protons/hydrogen ions.
Calculations for normality (N) are shown for HCl, H₂SO₄, NaOH, and Ba(OH)₂.

Parts Per Million (PPM)

PPM = (grams of solute /grams of solution ) x 10⁶
An example calculation for finding the concentration of NaCl (4mg) in 8 kg of water is provided.

Freezing-Point Depression

The freezing point of a solution is lower than the freezing point of the pure solvent.
The magnitude of the freezing-point depression is proportional to the number of solute particles.
Calculations for freezing-point depression (ΔT) using the formula ΔT = K_f × m × i are shown for examples with NaCl, 5m NaCl, and 5m AlCl₃.

Boiling-Point Elevation

The boiling point of a solution is higher than the boiling point of the pure solvent.
The magnitude of the boiling-point elevation is proportional to the number of solute particles.
Boiling point elevation is calculated using the formula ΔT =K_b × m × i, showing examples with NaCl, 5m KI, and 10m KCl.

Assessment: Boiling Point Elevation Calculation

Calculate the boiling-point elevation for a solution of 2 moles of CaCl₂ in 1 kg of water, given the boiling-point elevation constant (K_b) for water is 0.512.
