Study Notes
Introduction to Solutions
- Solutions are homogeneous mixtures of two or more components.
- A solvent is the component in a solution with the same physical state as the solution and present in the greatest amount.
- A solute is the component of a solution that is not the solvent.
Types of Solutions
- Solutions can be composed of gases, liquids, or solids as solvents and solutes.
- Binary solutions are composed of two substances.
- Examples include gas mixtures (like oxygen and nitrogen), liquid solutions (like ethanol in water), and solid solutions (like copper dissolved in gold).
Some Important Definitions
- A mixture is formed when two or more non-reacting substances are combined.
- A heterogeneous mixture consists of distinct phases with properties simply adding up.
- A homogeneous mixture forms a single homogenous phase.
Expressing the Strength of Solution
- Concentration refers to the amount of solute dissolved per unit volume of solution.
- Common expressions include mass percent, volume percent, molality, molarity, and mole fraction.
- Mass percent (mass of solute / total mass of solution) x 100
- Volume percent (volume of solute / total volume of solution) x 100
- Molality (moles of solute/ mass of solvent (kg))
- Molarity (moles of solute / volume of solution (L))
- Mole fraction (moles of solute / total moles of solution)
Solubility of a Solid in a Liquid
- Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents, while nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solvents.
- Dissolution is the process where solute dissolves and its concentration increases.
- Crystallization is where solute particles separate out.
- A saturated solution holds the maximum amount of solute at a constant temperature and pressure.
- Unsaturated solutions hold less solute than the maximum amount.
Solubility of Gases in Liquids
- The solubility of a gas in a liquid decreases as the temperature increases.
- The solubility of a gas in a liquid increases as the pressure increases.
- Henry's law states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas.
- This law applies at a constant temperature.
Vapour Pressure of Solution
- Vapor pressure is the pressure exerted by vapor on the liquid's surface when equilibrium exists between vapor and liquid.
- The nature of the liquid affects vapor pressure. Liquids with stronger intermolecular forces have lower vapor pressures.
- Temperature affects vapor pressure. Higher temperatures lead to higher vapor pressures.
Ideal and Non-Ideal Solutions
- Ideal solutions obey Raoult's law, which states that the partial pressure of a component in a solution is directly proportional to the component's mole fraction.
- In ideal solutions, the enthalpy and volume changes upon mixing are zero.
- Non-ideal solutions do not obey Raoult's law.
Colligative Properties
- Colligative properties (like vapor pressure lowering, boiling-point elevation, freezing-point depression, and osmotic pressure) are solution properties directly related to the solute concentration (not the nature of the solute).
