Chapter 13
Solutions Types of Solutions • A solution is a homogenous mixture of 2 or more substances • The solute is(are) the substance(s) present in the smaller amount(s) • The solvent is the substance present in the larger amount A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of a solute that will dissolve in a given solvent at a specific temperature. An unsaturated solution contains less solute than the solvent has the capacity to dissolve at a specific temperature. A supersaturated solution contains more solute than is present in a saturated solution at a specific temperature. Crystallization is the process in which dissolved solute comes out of solution and forms crystals
Sodium acetate crystals rapidly form when a seed crystal is added to a supersaturated solution of sodium acetate. A Molecular View of the Solution Process Three types of interactions in the solution process: • solvent-solvent interaction • solute-solute interaction • solvent-solute interaction
DHsoln = DH1 + DH2 + DH3 A Molecular View of the Solution Process
DHsoln = DH1 + DH2 + DH3 • If the solute-solvent attraction is > the solute-solute and solvent-solvent attractions, then the solution process is favorable, or EXOTHERMIC (DHsoln < 0). • If the solute-solvent interaction is weaker than the solvent-solvent and solute-solute interactions, then the solution process is ENDOTHERMIC (DHsoln > 0). • Solution process is governed by 2 main factors: 1. Energy – determines if a solution process is endothermic or exothermic 2. Inherent tendency toward disorder in all natural events (entropy) – increase in randomness or disorder when solute and solvent molecules mix to form a solution * It is the increase in disorder of the system that favors the solubility of any substance, even if the solution process is endothermic Solubility – “Like Dissolves Like”
Solubility is a measure of how much solute will dissolve in a solvent at a specific temperature. Two substances with similar intermolecular forces are likely to be soluble in each other. • non-polar molecules are soluble in non-polar solvents
CCl4 in C6H6 • polar molecules are soluble in polar solvents
C2H5OH in H2O • ionic compounds are more soluble in polar solvents
NaCl in H2O or NH3 (l) • Two liquids are said to be Miscible if they are completely soluble in each other in all proportions. • Solvation is the process in which an ion or a molecule is surrounded by solvent molecules arranged in a specific manner. Is molecular iodine more soluble in water or in carbon disulfide?
Carbon disulfide – a nonpolar solvent
“like dissolves like”: nonpolar iodine will be soluble in nonpolar carbon disulfide Concentration Units The concentration of a solution is the amount of solute present in a given quantity of solvent or solution.
Percent by Mass Independent of temperature mass of solute % by mass = x 100% mass of solute + mass of solvent mass of solute = x 100% mass of solution
Mole Fraction (X) moles of A X = A sum of moles of all components Concentration Units Molarity (M)
moles of solute M = liters of solution
Molality (m) Independent of temperature
moles of solute m = mass of solvent (kg) What is the molality of a 5.86 M ethanol (C2H5OH) solution whose density is 0.927 g/mL? moles of solute moles of solute m = M = mass of solvent (kg) liters of solution
Assume 1 L of solution: 5.86 moles ethanol = 270 g ethanol 927 g of solution (1000 mL x 0.927 g/mL) mass of solvent = mass of solution – mass of solute = 927 g – 270 g = 657 g = 0.657 kg
moles of solute 5.86 moles C2H5OH m = = = 8.92 m mass of solvent (kg) 0.657 kg solvent The Effect of Temperature on Solubility Solid solubility and temperature
solubility increases with increasing temperature solubility decreases with increasing temperature Fractional crystallization is the separation of a mixture of substances into pure components on the basis of their differing solubilities.
Suppose you have 90 g KNO3 contaminated with 10 g NaCl.
Fractional crystallization: 1. Dissolve sample in 100 mL of water at 600C 2. Cool solution to 00C 3. All NaCl will stay in solution (s = 34.2g/100g)
4. 78 g of PURE KNO3 will precipitate (s = 12 g/100g). 90 g – 12 g = 78 g Temperature and Solubility
O2 gas solubility and temperature
solubility usually decreases with increasing temperature The Effect of Pressure on the Solubility of Gases The solubility of a gas in a liquid is proportional to the pressure of the gas over the solution (Henry’s law).
c is the concentration (M) of the dissolved gas c = kP P is the pressure of the gas over the solution k is a constant for each gas (mol/L•atm) that depends only on temperature
low P high P
low c high c Pressure & Solubility of Gases
Each gas has a different k value at a given temperature The amount of gas that will dissolve in a solvent depends on how frequently the gas molecules collide with the liquid surface and become trapped by the condensed phase Practical application: effervescence of a soft drink when the bottle cap is removed Calculate the molar concentration of oxygen in water at 25C for a partial pressure of 0.22 atm. The Henry’s law constant for oxygen is 1.3 x 10-3 mol/Latm. c=kP c = (1.3 x 10-3 mol/Latm)(0.22 atm) c = 2.9 x 10-4 mol/L
How is oxygen highly soluble in blood when only sparingly soluble in water? Colligative Properties of Nonelectrolyte Solutions
• Colligative properties are properties that depend only on the number of solute particles in solution and not on the nature of the solute particles. 1. Vapor-pressure lowering 2. Boiling-point elevation 3. Freezing-point depression 4. Osmotic pressure • Dealing with Dilute solutions (< or = 0.2 M)
Colligative Properties 1. Vapor-Pressure Lowering • If a solute is nonvolatile (does not have a measurable vapor pressure), then the vapor pressure of its solution is always less than that of the pure solvent • Concentration of solute in solution determines relationship between vapor pressure of solution and vapor pressure of solvent
0 P 0 = vapor pressure of pure solvent P1 = X1 P 1 1
Raoult’s law X1 = mole fraction of the solvent If the solution contains only one solute:
X1 = 1 – X2 0 0 P 1 - P1 = DP = X2 P 1 X2 = mole fraction of the solute
Vapor-Pressure Lowering
Vapor pressure of a solution is lower than that of pure solvent…Why? – Increasing disorder in a solution – Solvent molecules have less of a tendency to leave a solution than to leave the pure solvent to become vapor Volatile = has measurable vapor pressure – If both components of a solution are volatile, then the vapor pressure of the solution is the sum of the individual partial pressures Ideal Solution = any solution that obeys Raoult’s Law
– Characteristics: Heat of solution, DHsoln = 0; volumes are additive

Freezing-Point Depression 0 DTf = T f – Tf • Freezing-point depression = freezing T 0 is the freezing point of point of the pure solvent – freezing point f of the solution the pure solvent T f is the freezing point of the solution 0 T f > Tf DTf > 0
DTf = Kf m

4. Osmotic Pressure (p) Osmosis is the selective passage of solvent molecules through a porous membrane from a dilute solution to a more concentrated one. A semipermeable membrane allows the passage of solvent molecules but blocks the passage of solute molecules. Osmotic pressure (p) is the pressure required to stop osmosis.

• An Ion pair is made up of 1 or more cations and 1 or more anions held together by electrostatic forces. • The presence of an ion pair reduces the # of particles in solution, causing a reduction in colligative properties • Electrolytes containing multicharged ions are more likely to form ion pairs

Colloid versus solution • collodial particles are much larger than solute molecules • collodial suspension is not as homogeneous as a solution Colloids
Tyndall effect – way to distinguish a solution from a colloid – Dispersed phase of a colloid scatters light; solute molecules in solution do not (too small) Hydrophilic & Hydrophobic Colloids – Hydrophilic = water-loving Usually contain extremely large molecules (i.e. proteins) – Hydrophobic = water-fearing Normally, not stable in water but can be stabilized by adsorption of ions on their surface Adsorbed ions can interact with water, thus stabilizing the colloid
