Study Notes
Concentration
- Measures the amount of solute dissolved in a given amount of solvent
- Expressed in terms of:
- Molarity (M): moles of solute per liter of solution (mol/L)
- Molality (m): moles of solute per kilogram of solvent (mol/kg)
- Mass percentage: mass of solute per 100 grams of solution
- Volume percentage: volume of solute per 100 mL of solution
Boiling Point Elevation
- The boiling point of a solution is higher than that of the pure solvent
- The amount of boiling point elevation depends on:
- The concentration of the solution
- The molecular weight of the solute
- The boiling point of the pure solvent
- Boiling point elevation (ΔTb) is directly proportional to the molality of the solution
Osmosis
- The movement of solvent molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration through a selectively permeable membrane
- Types of osmosis:
- Isotonic: equal concentration of solute on both sides of the membrane
- Hypotonic: lower concentration of solute on one side of the membrane
- Hypertonic: higher concentration of solute on one side of the membrane
Freezing Point Depression
- The freezing point of a solution is lower than that of the pure solvent
- The amount of freezing point depression depends on:
- The concentration of the solution
- The molecular weight of the solute
- The freezing point of the pure solvent
- Freezing point depression (ΔTf) is directly proportional to the molality of the solution
Molarity and Molality
- Molarity (M): moles of solute per liter of solution (mol/L)
- Molality (m): moles of solute per kilogram of solvent (mol/kg)
- Molarity and molality are related by the density of the solution
Heat Curves
- A graph of the temperature of a solution versus time as it freezes or boils
- Heat curves can be used to:
- Determine the freezing point of a solution
- Determine the boiling point of a solution
- Identify the melting point of a pure substance
Solubility
- The maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature
- Factors affecting solubility:
- Temperature: solubility often increases with increasing temperature
- Pressure: solubility often increases with increasing pressure
- Polarity: solutes dissolve in solvents with similar polarity
