    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
