Solutions

Solutions

• Solutions are homogeneous mixtures of two or more pure substances.

• In a solution, the solute is dispersed uniformly throughout the solvent.

Solutions

Solutions

How Does a Solution Form?1. Solvent molecules attracted to surface ions.2. Each ion is surrounded by solvent molecules.3. Enthalpy (H) changes with each interaction broken or

formed.

Solutions

How Does a Solution Form

The ions are solvated (surrounded by solvent).

If the solvent is water, the ions are hydrated.

The intermolecular force here is ion-dipole.

Solutions

Energy Changes in SolutionTo determine the enthalpy

change, we divide the process into 3 steps. 1. Separation of solute

particles.

2. Separation of solvent particles to make ‘holes’.

3. Formation of new interactions between solute and solvent.

Solutions

Enthalpy Changes in Solution

The enthalpy change of the overall process depends on H for each of these steps.

Start

End

EndStart

Solutions

Enthalpy changes during dissolution

The enthalpy of solution, Hsoln, can be either positive or negative.

Hsoln = H1 + H2 + H3

Hsoln (MgSO4)= -91.2 kJ/mol --> exothermic

Hsoln (NH4NO3)= 26.4 kJ/mol --> endothermic

Solutions

Why do endothermic processes sometimes occur spontaneously?

Some processes, like the dissolution of NH4NO3 in water, are spontaneous at room temperature even though heat is absorbed, not released.

Solutions

Enthalpy Is Only Part of the Picture

Entropy is a measure of: • Dispersal of energy in

the system.• Number of microstates

(arrangements) in the system.

b. has greater entropy, is the favored state

(more on this in chap 19)

Solutions

Entropy changes during dissolution

Each step also involves a change in entropy. 1. Separation of solute

particles.

2. Separation of solvent particles to make ‘holes’.

3. Formation of new interactions between solute and solvent.

Solutions

SAMPLE EXERCISE 13.1 Assessing Entropy ChangeIn the process illustrated below, water vapor reacts with excess solid sodium sulfate to form the hydrated form of the salt. The chemical reaction is

Does the entropy of the system increase or decrease?

Solutions

Dissolution vs reaction

• Dissolution is a physical change—you can get back the original solute by evaporating the solvent.

• If you can’t, the substance didn’t dissolve, it reacted.

Ni(s) + HCl(aq) NiCl2(aq) + H2(g) NiCl2(s)dry

Solutions

Degree of saturation

• Saturated solutionSolvent holds as much

solute as is possible at that temperature.

Undissolved solid remains in flask.

Dissolved solute is in dynamic equilibrium with solid solute particles.

Solutions

Degree of saturation

• Unsaturated SolutionLess than the

maximum amount of solute for that temperature is dissolved in the solvent.

No solid remains in flask.

Solutions

Degree of saturation

• SupersaturatedSolvent holds more solute than is normally

possible at that temperature.These solutions are unstable; crystallization can

often be stimulated by adding a “seed crystal” or scratching the side of the flask.

Solutions

Degree of saturation

Unsaturated, Saturated or Supersaturated?

How much solute can be dissolved in a solution?

More on this in Chap 17(solubility products, p 739)

Solutions

Factors Affecting Solubility

• Chemists use the axiom “like dissolves like”:Polar substances tend to

dissolve in polar solvents.Nonpolar substances tend

to dissolve in nonpolar solvents.

Solutions

Factors Affecting Solubility

The stronger the intermolecular attractions between solute and solvent, the more likely the solute will dissolve.Example: ethanol in water

Ethanol = CH3CH2OH

Intermolecular forces = H-bonds; dipole-dipole; dispersion

Ions in water also have ion-dipole forces.

Solutions

Factors Affecting Solubility

Glucose (which has hydrogen bonding) is very soluble in water.

Cyclohexane (which only has dispersion forces) is not water-soluble.

Solutions

Factors Affecting Solubility• Vitamin A is soluble in nonpolar compounds

(like fats).• Vitamin C is soluble in water.

Solutions

Which vitamin is water-soluble and which is fat-soluble?

Solutions

Gases in Solution

• In general, the solubility of gases in water increases with increasing mass.

Why?• Larger molecules

have stronger dispersion forces.

Solutions

Gases in Solution

QuickTime™ and aTIFF (LZW) decompressor

are needed to see this picture.

Solutions

Gases in Solution

• The solubility of liquids and solids does not change appreciably with pressure.

• But, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to its pressure.

Increasing pressure above solution forces more gas to dissolve.

Solutions

Henry’s Law

Sg = kPg

where

• Sg is the solubility of the gas;

• k is the Henry’s law constant for that gas in that solvent;

• Pg is the partial pressure of the gas above the liquid.

Solutions

Henry’s Law

Sg = kPg

k for N2 at 25°=6.8 x 10-4 mol/L atm

Solutions

Temperature

Generally, the solubility of solid solutes in liquid solvents increases with increasing temperature.

Solutions

Temperature• The opposite is true of

gases. Higher temperature drives gases out of solution.

Carbonated soft drinks are more “bubbly” if stored in the refrigerator.

Warm lakes have less O2 dissolved in them than cool lakes.

PRACTICE EXERCISE(a) Calculate the mass percentage of NaCl in a solution containing 1.50 g of NaCl in 50.0 g of water. (b) A commercial bleaching solution contains 3.62 mass % sodium hypochlorite, NaOCl. What is the mass of NaOCl in a bottle containing 2500 g of bleaching solution?

PRACTICE EXERCISEA commercial bleach solution contains 3.62 mass % NaOCl in water. Calculate (a) the molality and (b) the mole fraction of NaOCl in the solution.

Solutions

Colligative Properties

• Colligative properties depend only on the number of solute particles present, not on the identity of the solute particles.

• Among colligative properties areVapor pressure lowering Boiling point elevationMelting point depressionOsmotic pressure

Solutions

Vapor Pressure

As solute molecules are added to a solution, the solvent become less volatile (=decreased vapor pressure).

Solute-solvent interactions contribute to this effect.

Solutions

Vapor Pressure

Therefore, the vapor pressure of a solution is lower than that of the pure solvent.

Solutions

Raoult’s Law

PA = XAPAwhere• XA is the mole fraction of compound A

• PA is the normal vapor pressure of A at that temperature

NOTE: This is one of those times when you want to make sure you have the vapor pressure of the solvent.

Solutions

SAMPLE EXERCISE 13.8 Calculation of Vapor-Pressure Lowering

Glycerin (C3H8O3) is a nonvolatile nonelectrolyte with a density of 1.26 g/mL at 25°C. Calculate the vapor pressure at 25°C of a solution made by adding 50.0 mL of glycerin to 500.0 mL of water. The vapor pressure of pure water at 25°C is 23.8 torr (Appendix B).

PRACTICE EXERCISEThe vapor pressure of pure water at 110°C is 1070 torr. A solution of ethylene glycol and water has a vapor pressure of 1.00 atm at 110°C. Assuming that Raoult’s law is obeyed, what is the mole fraction of ethylene glycol in the solution?

Solutions

Boiling Point Elevation and Freezing Point Depression

Solute-solvent interactions also cause solutions to have higher boiling points and lower freezing points than the pure solvent.

Solutions

Boiling Point ElevationThe change in boiling point is proportional to the molality of the solution:

Tb = Kb m

where Kb is the molal boiling point elevation constant, a property of the solvent.Tb is added to the normal

boiling point of the solvent.

Solutions

Freezing Point Depression• The change in freezing

point can be found similarly:

Tf = Kf m

• Here Kf is the molal freezing point depression constant of the solvent.

Tf is subtracted from the normal freezing point of the solvent.

Solutions

Boiling Point Elevation and Freezing Point Depression

In both equations, T does not depend on what the solute is, but only on how many particles are dissolved.

Tb = Kb m

Tf = Kf m

Solutions

Colligative Properties of Electrolytes

Because these properties depend on the number of particles dissolved, solutions of electrolytes (which dissociate in solution) show greater changes than those of nonelectrolytes.

e.g. NaCl dissociates to form 2 ion particles; its limiting van’t Hoff factor is 2.

Solutions

Colligative Properties of Electrolytes

However, a 1 M solution of NaCl does not show twice the change in freezing point that a 1 M solution of methanol does.

It doesn’t act like there are really 2 particles.

Solutions

van’t Hoff Factor

One mole of NaCl in water does not really give rise to two moles of ions.

Solutions

van’t Hoff Factor

Some Na+ and Cl− reassociate as hydrated ion pairs, so the true concentration of particles is somewhat less than two times the concentration of NaCl.

Solutions

The van’t Hoff Factor

• Reassociation is more likely at higher concentration.

• Therefore, the number of particles present is concentration dependent.

Solutions

The van’t Hoff Factor

We modify the previous equations by multiplying by the van’t Hoff factor, i

Tf = Kf m i

i = 1 for non-elecrtolytes

Solutions

Osmosis

• Semipermeable membranes allow some particles to pass through while blocking others.

• In biological systems, most semipermeable membranes (such as cell walls) allow water to pass through, but block solutes.

Solutions

OsmosisIn osmosis, there is net movement of solvent from the area of higher solvent concentration (lower solute concentration) to the are of lower solvent concentration (higher solute concentration).

Water tries to equalize the concentration on both sides until pressure is too high.

Solutions

Osmotic Pressure

• The pressure required to stop osmosis, known as osmotic pressure, , is

nV

= ( )RT = MRT

where M is the molarity of the solution

If the osmotic pressure is the same on both sides of a membrane (i.e., the concentrations are the same), the solutions are isotonic.

Solutions

Osmosis in Blood Cells

• If the solute concentration outside the cell is greater than that inside the cell, the solution is hypertonic.

• Water will flow out of the cell, and crenation results.

Solutions

Osmosis in Cells

• If the solute concentration outside the cell is less than that inside the cell, the solution is hypotonic.

• Water will flow into the cell, and hemolysis results.

Solutions

Solutions

Molar Mass from Colligative Properties

We can use the effects of a colligative property such as osmotic pressure to determine the molar mass of a compound.

Solutions

Colloids:

Suspensions of particles larger than individual ions or molecules, but too small to be settled out by gravity.

Solutions

Tyndall Effect

• Colloidal suspensions can scatter rays of light.

• This phenomenon is known as the Tyndall effect.

Solutions

Colloids in Biological Systems

Some molecules have a polar, hydrophilic (water-loving) end and a nonpolar, hydrophobic (water-hating) end.

Solutions

Colloids in Biological Systems

Sodium stearate is one example of such a molecule.

Solutions

Colloids in Biological Systems

These molecules can aid in the emulsification of fats and oils in aqueous solutions.
