Study Notes
- 13.1 Solubility solutions consist of a solvent and one or more solutes. When the solute is added to the solvent, the solute dissolves or separates into individual units. The number of solute particles per solvent molecule particles affect a number of properties, called colligative properties. We use a number of methods to indicate the ratio of solutes to solvents.
- Molality is the ratio of the amount of solute (in moles) to the mass of the solvent in kilograms.
- Molarity is the ration of the amount of solute in moles to the volume of the solution in liters.
- The mole fraction is the ratio of one substance in moles to the total number of moles of all substances in the solution.
- The weight percent is ration of the mass of one substance in kg to the mass of the total solution.
We use which ever measures appropriate for the circumstances.
- 13.2 Creating solutions involves breaking apart the molecules of a chemical (solute) by the activity of a solvent. Two liquids are immiscible if neither can act as a solvent against the other. Like dissolves like: polar liquids dissolve other polar liquids and non-polar liquids dissolve other non-polar liquids. Non-polar and polar liquids tend to be immiscible when placed together. Dissolving chemicals is a reaction that can release or require energy (the heat of solution) to break apart a solid formation (lattice energy) and isolate the resulting molecules with solvent molecules (heat of hydration).
