Study Notes
Types of Solutions
- Solutions are classified as solid, liquid, and gaseous based on the state of the solute and solvent.
- Gaseous solutions can have gas, liquid, or solid solutes dissolved in a gas solvent.
- Liquid solutions can have gas, liquid, or solid solutes dissolved in a liquid solvent.
- Solid solutions can have gas, liquid, or solid solutes dissolved in a solid solvent.
Concentration of Solutions
- The composition of a solution can be described by expressing its concentration.
- Qualitative descriptions of concentration include terms such as dilute (small amount of solute) and concentrated (large amount of solute).
- Quantitative descriptions of concentration provide specific measurements and units, such as mole fraction, molarity, molality, and percentage.
Ideal Solutions
- The enthalpy of mixing and the volume of mixing for ideal solutions are zero.
- Ideal solutions exhibit no heat absorption or evolution during mixing.
- The volume of the solution is equal to the sum of the volumes of the individual components.
- Ideal solutions are characterized by equal intermolecular attractive forces between the solute-solute, solvent-solvent, and solute-solvent interactions.
- Examples of nearly ideal solutions include:
- n-hexane and n-heptane
- bromoethane and chloroethane
- benzene and toluene
Non-ideal Solutions
- Non-ideal solutions do not obey Raoult's law over the entire range of concentration.
- The vapor pressure of a non-ideal solution can be higher or lower than predicted by Raoult's law.
- Positive deviations from Raoult's law indicate a higher vapor pressure than expected.
- Negative deviations from Raoult's law indicate a lower vapor pressure than expected.
Freezing Point Depression
- The freezing point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid phase equals the vapor pressure of the solid phase.
- Dissolving a non-volatile solute into a solvent decreases the vapor pressure of the solution.
- Consequently, the freezing point of the solvent decreases, a phenomenon known as freezing point depression.
- The depression in freezing point (ΔTf) is directly proportional to the molality (m) of the solution.
Reverse Osmosis
- Reverse osmosis is a process that utilizes pressure to force solvent molecules across a semipermeable membrane from a high concentration solution to a low concentration solution.
- The pressure applied must be greater than the osmotic pressure of the solution.
- Reverse osmosis is used for water purification, such as desalination of seawater.
Abnormal Molar Masses
- Ionic compounds dissociate into cations and anions when dissolved in water.
- The degree of dissociation (x) determines the van't Hoff factor (i), which accounts for the number of particles present in the solution.
- Abnormal molar masses arise when the observed colligative properties deviate from the expected values due to dissociation or association of the solute in solution.
