Colligative Properties of Biological Liquids Colligative properties of biological liquids Colligative properties are properties of solutions that depend on the number of molecules in a given volume of solvent and not on the properties (e.g. size or mass) of the molecules. Colligative properties include: lowering of vapor pressure; elevation of boiling point; depression of freezing point and osmotic pressure. Measurements of these properties for a dilute aqueous solution of a non-ionized solute such as urea or glucose can lead to accurate determinations of relative molecular masses. Alternatively, measurements for ionized solutes can lead to an estimation of the percentage of ionization taking place. Colligative properties are mostly studied for dilute solutions. Vapor pressure The relationship between the lowering of vapor pressure and concentration is given by Raoult's law, which states that: The vapor pressure of an ideal solution is dependent on the vapor pressure of each chemical component and the mole fraction of the component present in the solution. The individual vapor pressure p for each component is p = p0 x , where p is the partial pressure of the component in mixture, p0 is the vapor pressure of the pure component, x is the mole fraction of the component in solution. Boiling point elevation Boiling point is achieved in the establishment of equilibrium between liquid and gas phase. At the boiling point, the number of gas molecules condensing to liquid equals the number of liquid molecules evaporating to gas. Adding any solute effectively dilutes the concentration of the liquid molecules, slowing the liquid to gas portion of this equilibrium. To compensate for this, boiling point is achieved at higher temperature. ΔTb = molality * Kb * i, (Kb = ebullioscopic constant, which is 0.51°C kg/mol for the boiling point of water; i = Van 't Hoff factor) Van't Hoff factor is the actual number of particles in solution after dissociation : i=1+α(n-1) Freezing point depression Freezing point, or the equilibrium between a liquid and solid phase is generally lowered in the presence of a solute compared to a pure solvent. ΔTf = molality * Kf * i, (Kf = cryoscopic constant, which is 1.86°C kg/mol for the freezing point of water,; i = Van 't Hoff factor) Osmosis Osmosis is the movement of water across a partially permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. A semipermeable membrane is a thin layer of material that contains various sized holes, or pores. Smaller solutes and fluid pass through the membrane, but the membrane blocks the passage of larger substances (for example, red blood cells, large proteins) Osmotic pressure Osmotic pressure is the pressure applied by a solution to prevent the inward flow of water across a semipermeable membrane. The phenomenon of osmotic pressure arises from the tendency of a pure solvent to move through a semi-permeable membrane. This process is of vital importance in biology as the cell's membrane is selective towards many of the solutes found in living organisms. Osmoregulation is the homeostasis mechanism of an organism to reach balance in osmotic pressure. Morse equation: πV = nRTi, where: π = osmotic pressure; V is the volume; T is absolute temperature; n is the number of moles of solute; R = 8.3145 J K-1 mol-1, the molar gas constant; i = Van 't Hoff factor. Osmoregulation in mammalian cells Ion Concentration in Concentration in cytosol (millimolar) blood (millimolar) Potassium 139 4 Sodium 12 145 Cloride 4 116 Bicarbonate 12 29 Amino acids in 138 9 proteins Magnesium 0.8 1.5 Calcium <0.0002 1.8 The loss of sodium and chloride ions compensates for the osmotic effect of the higher concentration of organic molecules inside the cell. Balance in osmotic pressure Hypertonic solution causes cells to shrink. Hypotonic solution causes cells to swell. Isotonic solution produces no change in cell volume. Dialysis In medicine, dialysis is primarily used to provide an artificial replacement for lost kidney function in people with renal failure. Substances in water tend to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Hemodialysis remove wastes and excess water from the blood. A hemodialysis machine.

  • Colligative Properties of Water
    Colligative properties of water Overview of colligative properties : mole fraction : molarity, molality, % w/w and % w/v Vapor pressure lowering : CaCl2 Freezing point depression : examples : Glucose : Urea : Ethanol : NaCl : CaCl2 Boiling point elevation : Glucose Osmotic pressure Self-generation of osmotic pressure at interfaces Overview of colligative properties The colligative properties of solutions consist of freezing point depression, boiling point elevation, vapor pressure lowering and osmotic pressure.n These properties ideally depend on changes in the entropy of the solution on dissolving the solute, which is determined by the number of the solute molecules or ions but does not depend on their structure. The rationale for these colligative properties is the increase in entropy on mixing solutes with the water. This extra entropy provides extra energy available in the solution which has to be overcome when ice or water vapor (neither of which contains a non-volatile solute)l is formed. It is available to help break the bonds of the ice causing melting at a lower temperature and to reduce the entropy loss when water condenses, so encouraging the condensation and reducing the vapor pressure. Put another way, the solute stabilizes the water in the solution relative to pure water. The entropy change reduces the chemical a potential(μw) by -RTLn(xw) (that is, the negative energy term RTLn(xw) is added to the potential) b d where xw is the mole fraction of the ‘free’ water (0 < xw < 1). Note that xw may be replaced by the water activity (aw) in this expression. Dissolving a solute in liquid water thus makes the liquid water more stable whereas the ice and vapor phases remain unchanged as no solute is present in ice crystals and no non-volatile solute is present in the vapor.

  • Elevation in Boiling Point of the Solvent (Ebullioscopy)
    www.thechemistryguru.com Colligative Properties Elevation in boiling point of the solvent (Ebullioscopy) Boiling point of a liquid may be defined as the temperature at which its vapour pressure becomes equal to atmospheric pressure, i.e., 760 mm. Since the addition of a non-volatile solute lowers the vapour pressure of the solvent, solution always has lower vapour pressure than the solvent and hence it must be heated to a higher temperature to make its vapour pressure equal to atmospheric pressure with the result the solution boils at a higher temperature than the pure solvent. Thus sea water boils at a higher temperature than distilled water. If Tb is the boiling point of the solvent and T is the boiling point of the solution, the difference in the boiling point (T or Tb) is called the elevation of boiling point. TTTb b or T Elevation in boiling point is determined by Landsberger’s method and Cottrell’s method. Study of elevation in boiling point of a liquid in which a non-volatile solute is dissolved is called as ebullioscopy. Important relations concerning elevation in boiling point (i) The elevation of boiling point is directly proportional to the lowering of vapour pressure, i.e., 0 Tb p p (ii) Tb K b m where Kb molal elevation constant or ebullioscopic constant of the solvent; m Molality of the solution, i.e., number of moles of solute per 1000g of the solvent; Tb Elevation in boiling point 1000 Kb w 1000 Kb w (iii) Tb or m m W TWb www.thechemistryguru.com Colligative Properties where, Kb is molal elevation constant and defined as the elevation in b.p.
