    Study Notes

    • Solubilizing agents form large aggregates or micelles in solution, increasing solubility of organic solutes in water or organic solvents.
    • Complex formation with a third substance can increase or decrease the apparent solubility of a solute in a liquid.
    • Henry's Law states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas.
    • Increased pressure increases the solubility of gases in liquids, while increased temperature decreases it.
    • Gases can be liberated from solutions by salting out with electrolytes like NaCl or non-electrolytes like sucrose.
    • Chemical reactions between gases and solvents may increase solubility, deviating from Henry's Law.
    • The solubility of liquids in liquids depends on factors like miscibility, cosolvents, and crystal characteristics like polymorphism and solvation.
