  • SOLUBILITY
  • solubility of a substance is its maximum amount that can be dissolved in a specific amount of solvent at a specified temperature.
  • It depends on * nature of solute and solvent

* temperature

* Pressure

Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solutes.

14 of 39

14

solute + solvent =solution

If the dissolution process is endothermic(ΔsolH>0 ) , the solubility should increase with rise in temperature.

If the dissolution process is exothermic ( ΔsolH < 0) , the solubility should decrease

Pressure does not have any significant effect on solubility of solids in liquids.

Henry’s law

Henrys law states that at a constant temperature,the solubility of a gas in a iquid is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas.

or

The law states that the partial pressure of the gas in vapour phase(p) is proportional to the molefraction of the gas (x)in the solution.

p= KH X

where KH is the Henrys law constant.

Higher the value of KH at a given pressure, the lower is the solubility of the gas in the liquid.

RAOULTS LAW FOR VOLATILE COMPONENT

Raoults law states that for a solution of volatile liquids,the partial pressure of each component in the solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction.

pA = pA0 xA where pA0 is the vapour pressure of pure component A

pB = pB0 xB where pB0 is the vapour pressure of pure componentB

P total = pA + pB

= p0A +(p0B –p0A) xB

19 of 39

19

RAOULTS LAW FOR NON-VOLATILE COMPONENT

If the component B ( solute ) is non volatile, it cannot give any contribution to the total pressure of the solution

Then Ptotal = pA + pB

Psolution = pA + 0

= p0A(1-xB)

Δp/p0A = xB

ie For non-volatile solute Raoults law states that the relative lowering of vapour pressure is equal to mole fraction of the solute

Colligative properties

The properties which depends on the number of solute particles not on the nature.

(1) Relative lowering of vapour pressure of the solvent (ΔP/P0)

(2 ) Elevation of boiling point of the solvent (ΔTb)

(3) Depression of freezing point of the solvent (ΔTf)

(4)Osmotic pressure of the solution (π)

RELATIVE LOWERING OF VAPOUR PRESSURE:

when a non-volatile solute is added to a solvent its vapour pressure is decreased.This is called lowering of vapour pressure.

(Colligative Proerty)

2.Elevation of Boiling Point (ΔTb):Then the difference between the boiling points of the pure solvent and that of the solution is called elevation of boiling point (ΔTb).

ΔTb=Tb - Tb0

ΔTb α molality

ΔTb = Kb x molality,

where Kb molal elevation constant

or Ebullioscopic constant

4. Osmotic pressure

Osmosis: If a solvent and solution are separated by a semipermeable membrane ,the solvent molecules will flow through the membrane from pure solvent to solution. This process of flow of solvent is called osmosis.

The excess pressure required to just prevent osmosis is called osmotic pressure.

Reverse Osmosis and Water Purification

The direction of osmosis can be reversed if a pressure larger than the osmotic pressure is applied to the solution side . This phenomenon is called reverse osmosis.

Reverse osmosis is used in desalination of sea water.

Abnormal Molar Masses

When we determine the molar mass of certain substances by colligative property methods, it will be higher or lower than the actual value.This is called abnormal molar mass.

It is due to (i) association or (ii) dissociation

  1. If association take place the molar mass increases.

eg : Acetic acid undergoes dimerization in benzene.So molar mass will be 120 instead of 60.

(ii) If dissociation take place molar mass decreases

eg: KCl in water

KCl ----🡪 K+ + Cl-
