1. Chemistry 232 Properties of Solutions

2. Concentration Terms • Dilute - not a lot of solute. • Concentrated - a large amount of solute. • Concentration can be expressed quantitatively is many ways: • Molarity • Molality • Percentage • Mole fraction

3. Molarity and Molality • The molarity is the number of moles of solute in 1 litre of solution. • M = moles of solute / V sol’n (litres) • The molality is the number of moles of solute in 1 kg of solvent. • M = moles of solute / kg solvent • Conversion between the two requires the solutions density.

4. Partial Molar Thermodynamic Properties Define a partial molar thermodynamic property as Euler’s Theorem

5. The Chemical Potential We define the chemical potential of a substance as

6. The Wider Significance of  Shows how all the extensive thermodynamic properties depend on system composition

7. Thermodynamics of Mixing Spontaneous mixing of two or more substances to form solutions Gibbs energy of the solution must be less than G(pure components)

21. Henry’s Law #3 The Standard State Chemical potential for Henry’s Law When the system is in equilibrium The chemical potential expressions reduce to Henry’s Law

22. Henry’s Law in terms of molalities The Standard State Chemical potential for Henry’s Law When the system is in equilibrium The chemical potential expressions reduce to Henry’s Law in terms of molalities

24. The Gibbs-Duhem Equation The Gibbs-Duhem gives us an interrelationship amongst all partial molar quantities in a mixture

25. Colligative Properties

26. Colligative Properties • All colligative properties • Depend on the number and not the nature of the solute molecules • Due to reduction in chemical potential in solution vs. that of the pure solvent • Freezing point depression • Boiling Point Elevation • Osmotic Pressure

30. Freezing Point Depression #2 Define the freezing point depression

31. Osmosis

32. Osmosis • The movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane from dilute side to concentrated side • the movement is such that the two sides might end up with the same concentration • Osmotic pressure: the pressure required to prevent this movement

33. Osmosis – The Thermodynamic Formulation  - the osmotic pressure Equilibrium is established across membrane under isothermal conditions

34. The Final Equation The osmotic pressure is related to the solutions molarity as follows

35. Terminology Isotonic: having the same osmotic pressure Hypertonic: having a higher osmotic pressure Hypotonic: having a lower osmotic pressure

36. Terminology #2 Hemolysis: the process that ruptures a cell placed in a solution that is hypotonic to the cell’s fluid Crenation: the opposite effect

37. The Partial Molar Volume In a multicomponent system

38. Volume Vs. Composition The partial molar volume of a substance slope of the variation of the total sample volume plotted against composition. PMV’s vary with solution composition

39. The PMV-Composition Plot The partial molar volumes of water and ethanol at 25C. Note the position of the maxima and minima!!

40. Experimental Determination of PMV’s Obtain the densities of systems as a function of composition Inverse of density – specific volume of solution

41. Example with Methanol. Plot volumes vs. mole fraction of component A or B Draw a tangent line to the plot of volume vs. mole fraction. Where the tangent line intersects the axis – partial molar volume of the components at that composition

42. The Solution Volume vs. Composition

43. The Mean Molar Volume Define the mean mixing molar volume as V*J – the molar volume of the pure liquid Vm = V/nT

45. Infinite Dilution Partial Molar Properties The value of a partial molar thermodynamic property in the limit of zero volume is its infinite dilution value E.g., for the volumes

46. The Definition of the Activity For any real system, the chemical potential for the solute (or solvent) is given by

47. Activities of Pure Solids/Liquids The chemical potential is essentially invariant with pressure for condensed phases

48. Pure Solids and Pure Liquids or aJ = 1 For a pure solid or a pure liquid at standard to moderately high pressures

49. Activities in Gaseous Systems The chemical potential of a real gas is written in terms of its fugacity

50. Define the Activity Coefficient The activity coefficient (J) relates the activity to the concentration terms of interest. In gaseous systems, we relate the fugacity (or activity) to the ideal pressure of the gas via
