13.5 Colligative properties Dissolving solute in pure liquid will change all physical properties of liquid, Density, Vapor Pressure, Boiling Point, Freezing Point, Osmotic Pressure Colligative Properties are properties of a liquid that change when a solute is added. The magnitude of the change depends on the number of solute particles in the solution, not on the identity of the solute particles.
Lowering the vapor pressure A liquid in a closed container will establish equilibrium with its vapor. When that equilibrium is reached, the pressure exerted by the vapor is called the vapor pressure The presence of a non-volatile solute means that fewer solvent particles are at the solution’s surface, so less solvent evaporates
Raoult’s Law Describes vapor pressure lowering mathematically . The lowering of the vapour pressure when a non-volatile solute is dissolved in a volatile solvent (A) can be described by Raoult’s Law: PA =XAPA PA = vapour pressure of solvent A above the solution XA = mole fraction of the solvent A in the solution PA = vapour pressure of pure solvent A only the solvent (A) contributes to the vapour pressure of the solution

Mixtures of Volatile Liquids Both liquids evaporate & contribute to the vapor pressure
Raoult’s Law: Mixing Two Volatile Liquids Since both liquids are volatile and contribute to the vapour, the total vapor pressure can be represented using Dalton’s Law: PT = PA + PB The vapor pressure from each component follows Raoult’s Law: PT = XAPA + XBPB Also, XA + XB = 1 (since there are 2 components)
Benzene and Toluene A two solvent (volatile) system The vapor pressure from each component follows Raoult's Law. Benzene - Toluene mixture: Recall that with only two components, XBz + XTol = 1 Benzene: when XBz = 1, PBz = PBz = 384 torr & when XBz = 0 , PBz = 0 Toluene: when XTol = 1, PTol = PTol = 133 torr & when XTol = 0, PBz = 0
PT = [(0.33)(75 torr)] + [(0.67)((22 torr)] Example: A mixture of benzene (C6H6) and toluene (C7H8) containing 1.0 mol of benzene and 2.0 mol of toluene. What is the total vapor pressure of the solution? [vapor pressures of pure benzene and toluene are 75 torr and 22 torr, respectively] PT = XAPA + XBPB C6H6 = = 0.33 1 X 1+2 C7H8 = = 0.67 2 X 1+2 PT = [(0.33)(75 torr)] + [(0.67)((22 torr)] = 24.75 torr + 14.75 torr = 39.5 torr
Boiling-point elevation and Freezing-point depression In a solution of a nonvolatile solute, boiling and freezing points differ from those of the pure solvent Boiling point is elevated when solute inhibits solvent from escaping. The boiling point of the solution is higher than that of the pure liquid Freezing point is depressed when solute inhibits solvent from crystallizing. The freezing point of the solution is lower than that of the pure liquid
Notice the changes in the boiling & freezing points. The diagram below shows how a phase diagram is affected by dissolving a solute in a solvent. The black curve represents the pure liquid and the blue curve represents the solution. Notice the changes in the boiling & freezing points. Phase diagrams for a pure solvent and for a solution of nonvolatile solute
Boiling-point elevation The increase of boiling point, Tb is directly proportional to the concentration of the solution expressed by its molality, m. Tb = (Tb –Tb ) = kbm Where, Tb = BP. Elevation Tb = BP of solvent in solution Tb° = BP of pure solvent m = molality , kb = BP Constant The boiling-point elevation is proportional to the concentration of solute particles, regardless of whether the particles are molecules or ions A 1 m aqueous solution of NaCl is 1 m Na+ and 1 m Cl-, making 2 m in total solute particles The boiling-point of elevation of a 1 m aqueous solution of NaCl is (2m)(0.51 C/m) = 1C.
Freezing-point depression The decrease of freezing point, Tf is directly proportional to the concentration of the solution expressed by its molality, m. Tf = (Tf –Tf) = kfm Where, Tf = FP depression Tf = FP of solvent in solution Tf°= FP of pure solvent m = molality kf = FP depression constant
The van 't Hoff factor, i : The van 't Hoff factor is the ratio between the actual concentration of particles produced when the substance is dissolved, and the concentration of a substance as calculated from its mass. For most non-electrolytes dissolved in water, the van' t Hoff factor is essentially 1. For most ionic compounds dissolved in water, the van't Hoff factor is equal to the number of discrete ions in a formula unit of the substance. Tf (calculated for nonelectrolyte) i = Tf (measured) For NaCl, van’t Hoff factor is 2, because NaCl consists of one Na+ and on Cl- per formula unit

Osmosis Osmosis is the spontaneous movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration Osmotic Pressure - The pressure that must be applied to stop osmosis
