    Lecture 3: Properties of Solutions

    • Definition of Solution: Solvent + Solute; homogenous mixture
    • Solvation Process: Process of dissolving substances in water (or other solvents). Also known as hydration.
    • Key Questions: When do substances dissolve? How much dissolves? What are the properties of solutions?

    Thermodynamics of Solutions

    • Definition: Change in Gibbs free energy to form a solution.
    • Spontaneity: Solutions are spontaneous if the change in Gibbs free energy is less than 0.
    • Relationship to Entropy and Enthalpy: ΔG = ΔH - TΔS. ΔSsoln is the change in entropy in mixing solute and solvent, typically positive. The change in enthalpy ΔHsoln, depends on the intermolecular interactions (solute-solute, solute-solvent, solvent-solvent).

    Enthalpy Changes During Solvation

    • Breaking Intermolecular Forces: Solvation involves breaking solute, solvent, and solute/solvent interactions.
    • Steps of the process: Separate solvent, separate solute, mix separated solvent and solute.
    • Exothermic vs. Endothermic: Enthalpy changes of solution formation (ΔHsoln) can be positive (endothermic).

    Solubility

    • Definition: Maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature.
    • Factors: Solubility depends on a multitude of factors including: temperature, pressure, and the nature of the solvent and solute.
    • Solid vs Liquid Solubility: Solutes can be solids or liquids, and solubility behavior can be different for each type.
    • "Like Dissolves Like" (general rule): Polar substances tend to dissolve in polar solvents, and nonpolar substances tend to dissolve in nonpolar solvents

    Other Factors Affecting Solubility

    • Pressure: Solubility of gases increases with pressure (Henry's Law).
    • Temperature: Solubility of many solids increases with temperature, whereas solubility of gases decreases with increasing temperature.
    • Example: How dissolving carbon dioxide or other gases in water or other solvents is affected by temperature or pressure .

    Expressions for Concentration

    • Qualitative: Dilute, Concentrated
    • Quantitative Units: Mole fraction (X), Mass %, Molarity (M), Molality (m), ppm, ppb.

    How Does Solute Affect Properties of the Solvent (Colligative Properties)

    • Boiling Point Elevation: Solute increases the boiling point of the solvent (measured using a change in temperature ΔTb, dependent on molality 'm' of solute)
    • Vapor Pressure Lowering: Solute lowers the vapor pressure of the solvent by Raoult's Law
    • Freezing Point Depression: Solute decreases the freezing point of the solvent (measured using a change in temperature from the pure solvent ΔTf).

    Osmosis

    • Semi-permeable membrane: Allows the passage of the solvent/solute (water) but not the solvent.
    • Osmotic flow occurs when the solvent diffuses to equalize the concentration across a semi-permeable membrane.
    • Osmotic pressure : Counteracting osmotic flow, measures the pressure required to prevent more solvent movement.

    Ideal Gas vs Ideal Solutions

    • Ideal Gas: No intermolecular forces.
    • Ideal Solution: Intermolecular forces are identical in each component of the solution (solute, solvent).

    Determining Molecular Weight

    • Application of osmotic pressure (Π) to find the molar mass (MW) of a solute.

    Antifreeze Proteins (AFPs)

    • Mechanism of action: AFPs function differently than other antifreeze agents by blocking ice nucleation, not by lowering the freezing point.
    • Non-colligative effect
    • Kinetics-based mechanism is important

    Summary of What We Learned

    • Thermodynamics of Solutions (ΔG, ΔH, ΔS): Crucial for assessing the spontaneity and energy changes in mixing processes.
    • Solubility Concepts: Various factors impacting solubility (polarity, T, P).
    • Expressions of Concentration: Essential ways to quantify solute levels in solutions.
    • Colligative Properties: Properties altering with concentration (BP elevation, VP lowering, FP depression, Osmosis).
