Study Notes
Solubility
- Quantitative definition of solubility: Not explicitly stated, but implied to be the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature.
Types of Solutions
- Solution containing dissolved solute in a concentration below that necessary for complete saturation at a definite temperature: Undersaturated solution.
Solution Behavior
- If a mixture, initially containing 100 grams of dissolved glucose at 25 °C, is slowly cooled back to 25 °C: Precipitation of glucose occurs, as the solubility of glucose decreases with decreasing temperature.
Effects of Electrolytes and Non-Electrolytes
- Addition of electrolytes and non-electrolytes to gaseous solutions: Increases the solubility of gases, particularly in aqueous solutions.
Ideal Solutions
- Components obey Raoult's law and have adhesive forces equal to cohesive forces: Ideal solutions, where the interactions between solute and solvent molecules are identical to those between solvent molecules.
Negative Deviation
- Characteristic of a negative deviated solution: Lower vapor pressure than expected, indicating stronger intermolecular forces between solute and solvent molecules.
Liquid-Liquid Miscibility
- Conditions for complete miscibility in liquid-liquid systems: Similar intermolecular forces between the two liquids.
Solvent Properties
- Water's ability to dissolve NaCl, but not chloroform and benzene: Polarity and high dielectric constant of water, allowing it to dissociate and solvate ionic compounds.
- Non-polar solvents like benzene unable to dissolve ionic compounds: Lack of polarity and low dielectric constant, making them unable to dissociate and solvate ionic compounds.
- Water's ability to dissolve phenols, alcohols, and other oxygen & nitrogen containing compounds: Hydrogen bonding between water molecules and the functional groups of these compounds.
