  1. Solubility and Solubility curves

  2. Solubility • The solubility of a substance is the mass required to make a saturated solution in a given quantity of solvent (usually water) at a certain temperature. • Solubility at a given temperature = maximum mass (g) of a substance that will dissolve in 100 ml of water. • For example at 20°C, the solubility of potassium nitrate is 32 g per 100 g of water.

  3. Solubility of a substance is affected by… 1) The nature of the substances For example, ionic compounds and hydrates dissolve in aqueous solutions. 2) The polarity of the substances For example, polar substances dissolve in polar solvents. 3) The temperature Some substances only dissolve above certain temperatures. 4) The pressure Some substances only dissolve when under pressure.

  4. Solubility of a solid - KClO3 Draw a graph of the maximum mass of KClO3 dissolved vs. temperature

  5. g solute / 100 ml H20

  6. Solubility types • Saturated solution – a solution containing the maximum quantity of solute at a specific temperature and pressure • Unsaturated = ? A solution containing less than the maximum quantity of solute possible for that solvent at a specific temp. and pressure. • Supersaturated – ? A solution containing more solute than the saturated conditions.

  7. Results of lab: solubility of KClO3 g solute / 100 ml H20 KNO3 3a i) 7 Unsaturated ii) 14 Supersaturated 4 i) iii) 24 - 25 Saturated 3b i) 30°C 4 ii) ii) 3°C 4iii) iii) 48°C 4 i) saturated ii) unsaturated iii) unsaturated

  8. Saturation and solubility curves See Fig 2 on pg. 316 Notice that there are solubility curves for many different substances Q - Why do temperatures range from 0-100°C A - Water is a liquid at these temperatures Solubility curves tell us how much solid will dissolve at a given temperature They also allow certain calculations…

  9. Calculations using solubility curves Using fig 2 (pg. 316) 5. 100 ml H2O is saturatedwith KClO3 at 100°C. How much KClO3 will come out of solution if the temperature is decreased to 48°C? How much would precipitate under the same circumstances if 350 ml water were used 6. 57 g - 18 g = 39 g (57 g - 18 g) x 3.5 = 137 g (85 g - 21 g) x 1.5 = (64 g) x 1.5 = 96 g
