    Study Notes

    Solutions

    • Solutions are homogenous mixtures, with a uniform composition throughout.

    • The component present in the largest amount is the solvent, and the other components are solutes.

    • Solvents determine a solution's physical state.

    Types of Solutions

    • Gaseous solutions: Gas dissolved in Gas
      • Examples: Oxygen and nitrogen gas mixture, Chloroform mixed with nitrogen gas, Camphor in nitrogen gas
    • Liquid Solutions: Gas dissolved in Liquid
      • Examples: Oxygen dissolved in water, Ethanol dissolved in water, Glucose dissolved in water
    • Solid Solutions: Gas dissolved in Solid
    • Examples: Hydrogen dissolved in palladium
    • Solid Solutions: Liquid dissolved in Solid
    • Examples: Amalgam of mercury with sodium
    • Solid Solutions: Solid dissolved in Solid
    • Examples: Copper dissolved in gold

    Expressing Concentration of Solutions

    • Quantitative descriptions are needed for accurate communication.

    • Common concentration units:

      • Mass Percentage (w/w): (Mass of component / Total mass of solution) × 100
      • Volume Percentage (V/V): (Volume of component / Total volume of solution) × 100
      • Mass by Volume Percentage (w/v): Mass of solute / Volume of solution (100mL)
      • Parts per Million (ppm): Ratio of component parts to total parts multiplied by 10⁶
      • Mole Fraction (x): Ratio of moles of a component to total moles in the solution. Sum of mole fractions for all components is always 1.

    • Molarity (M): Moles of solute per liter of solution.

    • Molarity is temperature-dependent because volume changes with temperature

    • Molality (m): Moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.

    • Molality is temperature-independent because mass remains constant.

    Solubility

    • Solubility is the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a specific amount of solvent at a given temperature and pressure.

    • Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents and non-polar solutes dissolve in non-polar solvents.

    • Dissolution: The process of a solid solute dissolving in a solvent.

    • Saturated solution: A solution in a dynamic equilibrium, where no more solute can be dissolved at a given temperature and pressure.

    • Unsaturated solution: A solution where more solute can be dissolved.

    Solubility of a Solid in a Liquid

    • Effect of Temperature: Typically, solubility increases with temperature for endothermic dissolution processes and decreases with temperature for exothermic dissolution processes.

    • Effect of Pressure: Pressure does not significantly affect the solubility of solids in liquids because solids and liquids are practically incompressible.

    Solubility of a Gas in a Liquid

    • Effect of Temperature: The solubility of gases decreases with increasing temperature.

    • Effect of Pressure: The solubility of gases increases with increasing pressure.

    • Henry's Law: At constant temperature, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas above the liquid or solution's surface.

    • Henry's Law Equation: p = KHx

      • p: partial pressure of the gas in the vapor phase
      • KH: Henry's law constant
      • x: mole fraction of the gas in the solution

    Vapour Pressure of Liquid Solutions

    • Raoult's Law: For a solution of volatile liquids, the partial pressure of each component in the solution is equal to the vapor pressure of the pure component multiplied by its mole fraction in the solution.

    • Total vapor pressure of a solution: Sum of the partial pressures of its components.

    • Effect of Temperature: The dissolution process is typically exothermic, so solubility decreases with increasing temperature.

    Abnormal Colligative Properties

    • Colligative properties: Properties of solutions that depend on the concentration of the solute particles, not their identity.

    • Abnormal colligative properties: Occur when some solutes exhibit deviations from expected behavior due to interactions between solute molecules and solvent molecules.

    • Examples:

    • Dissociation: Solutes like strong electrolytes dissociate into ions in solution.

    • Association: Solutes like carboxylic acids form dimers in solution.

    Example Calculations

    • Calculation of mole fraction, molarity, and molality are essential skills for understanding and working with solutions.

    • Sample calculations are provided in the text to illustrate these concepts.
