Chapter 13: Properties of Solutions Sam White Pd. 2
Introduction • A solution is any homogenous mixture, which means the components are uniformly intermingled on a molecular level • The Solvent is the most abundant component. It does the dissolving. • The Solute are any of the other components. They are the ones being dissolved
Formation of Solutions • With the exception of gas solutions, solutions form when the attractive forces between solute and solvent are comparable or greater than the intermolecular forces in either component
Formation of Solutions • Example: Salt Water- Attractive forces between Na+ or Cl- and the polar water molecules overcome the lattice energy of solid NaCl • Once separated, the Na+ and Cl- are surrounded by water. This interaction is known in all solutions as solvation • When the solvent is water, this interaction is known as hydration
Energy Change in Solution Formation • In order to form a solution, the solvent must form space to house the solute and the solute must be dissolved, both of which take energy
Enthalpy of Solution • Overall Enthalpy Change: • DHsolution=DH1+DH2+DH3 • Example with Salt Water: • DH1 accounts for the separation of NaCl to Na+ and Cl- • DH2 accounts for the separation of solvent molecules to accommodate the solute • DH3 accounts for the attractive interactions between solute and solvent
Saturated Solutions • As concentration of a solid solute increases, so does it’s chance of of colliding with the surface of the solid and becoming reattached to the solid • This is called crystallization • Solute + Solvent Solution
Saturated Solutions • When the rates of crystallization and dissolving become equal, no increase of solute in solution will occur • When a solution will not dissolve any more solute, it is a saturated solution • When a solution that can still dissolve solute into it is an unsaturated solution
Supersaturation • Under suitable conditions, it is sometimes possible to form a solution with more solute than that needed for a saturated solution • These solutions are supersaturated
Supersaturation • Supersaturation usually occurs because many solutes are more soluble at one temperature than another • Example: Sodium acetate, NaC2H3O2, will dissolve in water more readily at higher temperatures. When a saturated solution is made at higher temperatures then slowly cooled, all of the solute may remain dissolved even though the solubility decreases
Factors Affecting Solubility • The stronger the intermolecular attractive forces between solute and solvent, the greater the solubility • As a result of favorable dipole-dipole attractions, polar liquids tend to dissolve more readily in polar solvents • Water is not only polar, but has hydrogen bonds, making solutes that have hydrogen bonds able to dissolve in water as well
Factors Affecting Solubility • Pairs of liquids that mix in all proportions are miscible • Liquids that do not dissolve significantly in one another are immiscible
Hydrocarbons vs. Alcohols • Many hydrocarbons are immiscible in water because they are nonpolar molecules • Alcohols have an OH group, which are both polar and have hydrogen bonds, making them more readily soluble in water • As the carbon chain become larger, the effect of the OH group becomes smaller, meaning that larger alcohol chains begin to become less soluble
Pressure Effects • Pressure only affects the solubility of gas in a solvent • As pressure increases, solubility of the gas increases
Henry’s Law • Cg = kPg • Cg is the solubility of the gas in solution (usually expressed in molarity) • Pg is the partial pressure of the gas over solution • k is the Henry’s Law Constant, which is unique for all solute-solvent pairs as well as the temperature
Temperature Effects • As temperature increases, the solubility of solid solutes (such as salts) normally increases • In contrast, as temperature increases, the solubility of gaseous solutes normally decreases

Ways of Expressing Concentration • Mass percentage, ppm • Mole Fraction • Molarity • Molality
Mass Percentage and ppm • Mass % of component = (mc / mt) x 100 • mc = mass of component in solution • mt = total mass of solution • ppm of component = (mc / mt) x 106 • mc and mt denote the same things for ppm as they denote for mass % of component
Mole Fraction • Mole Fraction of Component = (molc / molt) • molc = moles of component • molt = total moles of all components
Molarity • Molarity = (mols / Ls) • mols = moles solute • Ls = liters solution
Molality • Molality = (mols / kgs) • mols = moles solute • kgs = kilograms solvent
Colligative Properties • Colligative properties depend on the quanity of solute, not the type of solute • The colligative properties are: • Vapor-Pressure Reduction • Boiling-Point Elevation • Freezing-Point Depression • Osmotic Pressure
Vapor-Pressure Reduction • As the amount of solute increases, the vapor pressure of solution decreases • This relationship can be expessed through Raoult’s Law: • PA = XAPoA • PA = Partial pressure exerted by solvent • XA = Mole fraction of solvent • PoA = Vapor pressure of pure solvent
Boiling-Point Elevation • As amount of solute increase, boiling point increases • This relationship can be expressed as: DTb = dKbm • DTb = total boiling point elevation • d = dissociation factor of the solute • Kb = molal boiling point elevation constant of the solvent • m = molality of solution
Freezing-Point Depression • As amount of solute increases, freezing point decreases • This relationship can be expressed as: DTf = dKfm • DTf = total freezing point depression • d = dissociation factor of the solute • Kf = molal freezing point depression constant of the solvent • m = molality of solution
Osmotic Pressure • As amount of solute increases, osmotic pressure increases • This relationship can be expressed as: p = (n / V)RT = MRT • p = osmotic pressure • n = number of moles solute • V = volume of solution • R = ideal gas constant • T = temperature of solution • M = molarity of solution
