Study Notes
Learning Outcomes
- Ability to identify and discuss colligative properties of solutions.
- Understanding of iso-osmoticity versus isotonicity.
- Recognition of the importance of isotonicity in pharmaceutical preparations.
- Skill to perform calculations related to tonicity in pharmaceuticals.
Colligative Properties
- Defined as physical properties of solutions dependent on the number of dissolved non-volatile solute species.
- Key types of colligative properties include:
- Vapour pressure lowering
- Boiling point elevation
- Freezing point depression
- Osmotic pressure
- Osmotic pressure is particularly significant in pharmacy practices.
Vapour Pressure Lowering
- Non-volatile solutes decrease the vapour pressure of a solvent.
- Vapour pressure of the solution is lower than that of the pure solvent due to increased disorder (entropy).
- Reduction in vapour pressure is proportional to the relative number of solute molecules in the solution.
- Raoult’s law explains the relationship:
- Vapour pressure of a solvent over a dilute solution (P1) equals the pure solvent vapour pressure (𝜌𝜌1o) multiplied by the mole fraction of the solvent (X1).
- Representation: P1 = X1𝜌𝜌1o
- Vapour pressure lowering can be quantified as:
- ΔP = X2 𝜌𝜌1o (where X2 is the mole fraction of solute).
Elevation of Boiling Point
- The boiling point is defined as the temperature where the liquid's vapour pressure equals atmospheric pressure.
- Elevation of boiling point occurs when a solute is added, requiring a higher temperature for the vapour pressure to equal the atmospheric pressure.
Importance of Entropy
- Dissolving a solute increases the disorder of solvent molecules, leading to higher entropy (S).
- Increase in entropy results in lower free energy (G), described by the equation ΔG = ΔH – TΔS.
