Study Notes

Polar and Nonpolar Molecules

Polar molecules are asymmetrical, having poles, while nonpolar molecules are symmetrical with no poles.

Solubility Rules

LiOH, Cu(NO3)2, AgCl2, MgS, NaS2, and KOH are all soluble (aq) in water.
Solubility is the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent.

Factors Affecting Solubility

Increasing temperature generally increases solubility for solids, but decreases solubility for gases.
Pressure affects the solubility of gases, with increasing pressure forcing more gas into solution.
Type of solvent and solute also affects solubility, with polar solvents dissolving polar and ionic solutes, and non-polar solvents dissolving non-polar and covalent solutes.

Dissolving Process

Polar H2O molecules surround positive and negative ions, breaking apart crystal lattices, and releasing energy.
The dissolving process takes energy to break bonds, and energy is released during dissolving.

Saturated and Supersaturated Solutions

A saturated solution is at equilibrium, where particles are dissolving and precipitating at the same rate.
A supersaturated solution contains more solute than it can hold at a given temperature.

Factors Affecting Rate of Solubility

Temperature affects the rate of solubility, with increasing temperature increasing kinetic energy and diffusion.
Surface area and stirring also affect the rate of solubility, with larger surface areas and more agitation increasing the opportunity for interaction between solute and solvent.

Solutions and Concentration

A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances in the same physical state.
The concentration of a solution is the amount of solute in a given amount of solvent.
Soluble substances dissolve in water, while insoluble substances do not.

Calculations and Properties of Solutions

Molarity, gram per liter, and parts per million can be used to calculate the concentration of a solution.
Freezing point depression and boiling point elevation occur when solutes are added to solvents, disrupting crystallization and evaporation.

Chromatography and Distillation

Chromatography separates solutions into individual substances using differences in polarity.
Distillation separates solutions into individual substances using differences in physical properties.
