    Study Notes

    Stoichiometric Calculations

    • Steps in converting masses of reactants and products:
      • Convert the mass of substance A to moles.
      • Use the balanced chemical equation to find the mole ratio of A to B.
      • Convert the moles of substance B to mass.
    • The US Space Shuttle example:
      • NASA engineers used stoichiometry to calculate fuel requirements for the space shuttles.
      • Reaction: 2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(g)
      • To calculate hydrogen needed for 1.00 tn of oxygen:
        • Convert tons of O2 to grams.
        • Calculate moles of O2.
        • Use mole ratio to find moles of H2.
        • Convert moles of H2 to tons.

    Solutions

    • The solubility of a solute in a solvent depends on the balance between the natural tendency for solute and solvent to mix, and achieving the lowest energy possible.
    • The concentration of a solute is the amount dissolved per unit volume of solution or solvent.
    • When a solute dissolves in a solvent, an equilibrium is established between the undissolved and dissolved solute.
    • Polar liquids can act as solvents for ionic compounds.
    • Ion-dipole interactions are strong and contribute to dissolving ionic compounds in polar liquids.
    • Phospholipids form a bilayer in the cell membrane, with hydrophobic tails towards the interior and hydrophilic heads facing the exterior.

    Heat of Solution

    • Energy (heat) is absorbed or evolved when a solute dissolves in a solvent.
    • The heat effect observed in preparing a solution is due to breaking and forming bonds and attractions between solute-solute, solvent-solvent, and solute-solvent.
    • Enthalpy change (ΔH) denotes the heat change in a process between initial and final states.
    • Hess's law states that the overall enthalpy change in a reaction is the sum of enthalpy changes for each step.
    • Solutions can be exothermic (heat evolved) or endothermic (heat absorbed).
    • Ideal solutions mix without heat change.

    Molarity

    • Concentration refers to the quantity of solute in a standard quantity of solution.
    • A solution is dilute when the solute concentration is low and concentrated when it's high.
    • Molarity (M) is the moles of solute dissolved in 1 liter of solution.
    • Molarity is a measure of concentration.

    Calculating Moles from Volume

    • The flowchart for stoichiometric calculations can use either masses of solid reactants/products or volumes of solutions of reactants/products to determine amounts of other species.

    Temperature: Random Motion of Molecules and Atoms

    • Absolute Zero is -273.15 °C or -459.7 °F, where molecular motion virtually stops.
    • Kelvin (K) is the same size as the Celsius degree, but with zero set at a different point.
    • Temperature scales can be converted using formulas:
      • °C = (K - 273.15)
      • °F = (9/5)°C + 32
      • K = °C + 273.15

    Osmosis

    • Osmosis is the movement of solvent molecules through a semipermeable membrane from a dilute solution to a more concentrated solution.
    • In biology, osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a cell's partially permeable membrane.
    • Drinking seawater or saltwater causes dehydration due to osmosis, as water moves out of the body to try to balance the salt concentration.

    Osmotic Pressure

    • Osmotic pressure (π) is a colligative property of a solution that stops osmosis.
    • Osmotic pressure is related to the molar concentration of solute (M) by the equation: π = MRT, where R is a constant (0.082 L.atm/K.mol) and T is the absolute temperature.
