15.2 Solvents and Solutes

15.2 Solvents and Solutes If you filter a solution through filter paper, both the solute and the solvent pass through the filter. A solution cannot be separated by filtration. The small size of the solute particles allows them to pass through filter paper.

How Can We Increase Solubility? 16.1 Solution Formation How Can We Increase Solubility?

Stirring and Solution Formation 16.1 Solution Formation Stirring and Solution Formation Bring fresh solvent (the water in tea) is continually brought into contact with the surface of the solute (sugar). More contact with solvent = faster to dissolve (not more to dissolve)

Higher temperature = more kinetic energy 16.1 Solution Formation Temperature and Solution Formation Higher temperature = more kinetic energy More kinetic energy = more molecular movement Equals faster dissolving time and increase in solubility

The bigger the molecule the less soluble it is. 16.1 Solution Formation Particle Size The bigger the molecule the less soluble it is. Smaller “pieces” dissolve faster.

Solubility is often expressed in grams of solute per 100 g of solvent. 16.1 Solubility SOLUBILITY The amount of solute that dissolves in a given quantity of a solvent at a specified temperature and pressure to produce a saturated solution. Solubility is often expressed in grams of solute per 100 g of solvent.

Saturated Unsaturated Solutions Saturated Unsaturated Maximum amount of solute Can hold more solute

Factors Affecting Solubility 16.1 Factors Affecting Solubility A supersaturated solution contains more solute than it can theoretically hold at a given temperature. The crystallization of a supersaturated solution can be initiated if a very small crystal, called a seed crystal, of the solute is added. Watch it happen!

Rate of dissolving = rate of crystallization A simulation *** pHet Sim 16.1 Solubility Solution Equilibrium Rate of dissolving = rate of crystallization A simulation *** pHet Sim In a saturated solution, a state of dynamic equilibrium exists between the solution and the excess solute. The rate of solvation (dissolving) equals the rate of crystallization, so the total amount of dissolved solute remains constant. Inferring What would happen if you added more solute?

You have to know molar mass! 16.2 Molarity Molarity How do you calculate the molarity of a solution? Molarity (M) is the number of moles of solute dissolved in one liter of solution. You have to know molar mass!

16.2 Molarity Molarity Calculate the molarity of a solution which contains 0.40 mol of a substance dissolved in 1.6 L of a solution.

16.2 Molarity Molarity What is the molarity of a solution containing 325 g of NaCl dissolved in 750. mL of solution?

16.2 Molarity Molarity You are making 2.2 L of 3.1 M silver nitrate solution. Who many moles of solute are there?

Colligative Properties 16.2 Molarity Colligative Properties What is happens when salt is added to water And…… We try to freeze it? We try to boil it?
