Simple Mixtures Studied in This Chapter Non-reactive: No chemical reaction would occur. Binary: Non-electrolyte: the solute is not present as ions.
Concentration Units There are three major concentration units in use in thermodynamic descriptions of solutions. These are molarity molality mole fraction Letting J stand for one component in a solution (the solute), these are represented by [J] = nJ/V (V typically in liters) bJ = nJ/msolvent (msolvent typically in kg) xJ = nJ/n (n = total number of moles of all species present in sample)
Exercise What mass of glycine should be used to make 250 mL of a solution of molar concentration 0.15M NH2CH2COOH(aq)?

Partial Molar Volume Unit: L/mol or mL/mol
Exercise Use the figure in slide 8 to calculate the density of a mixture of 20 g of water and 100 g of ethanol. Solution: First calculate the mole fractions. 20 g H2O = 1.11 mol; 100 g EtOH = 2.17 mol xH2O = 0.34; xEtOH = 0.66 Then interpolate from the mixing curve (next slide): VH2O = 17.1 cm3 mol-1; VEtOH = 57.4 cm3 mol-1 Then plug the moles and partial molar volume (1.11 mol)(17.1 cm3/mol) + (2.17 mol)(57.4 cm3/mol) =19.0 cm3 + 125 cm3 = 144 cm3 Finally, the total mass is divided by the total volume: 120 g/144 cm3 = 0.83 g/ cm3

The Thermodynamics of Mixing Is mixing ( composition change) spontaneous?
Mixing of two perfect gases or two liquids that form an ideal solution:
Exercise Suppose the partial pressure of a perfect gas falls from 1.00 bar to 0.50 bar as it is consumed in a reaction at 25 oC. What is the change in chemical potential of the substance? Solution: We want mJ,f - mJ,i But mJ,i = mJo so we want mJ ! mJo = RT ln (pJ/po) = (2.479 J/mol) (ln 0.50) = -1.7 kJ/mol
Exercise: at 25C, calculate the Gibbs energy change when the partition is removed

Ideal Solutions Pure substance: Vapor pressure Solute:
Raoult’s Law and Ideal Solutions Raoult found that the partial vapor pressure of a substance in a mixture is proportional to its mole fraction in the solution and its vapor pressure when pure: pJ = xJ pJ* Any solution which obeys Raoult’s law throughout its whole range of composition (from xJ = 0 to xJ = 1) is an ideal solution.
Raoult’s Law
Raoult’s Law: Examples
Exercise A solution is prepared by dissolving 1.5 mol C10H8 in 1.00 kg benzene. The v.p. of pure benzene is 94.6 torr at this temperature (25oC). What is the partial v.p. of benzene in the solution? Solution: We can use Raoult’s law, but first we need to compute the mole fraction of benzene. MM benzene = 78.1 g/mol, so 1.00 kg = 12.8 mol. xbenz = 12.8 mol / (12.8 mol + 1.5 mol) = 0.895 pbenz = xbenz p*benz = (0.895)(94.6 torr) = 84.7 torr
Exercise By how much is the chemical potential of benzene reduced at 25oC by a solute that is present at a mole fraction of 0.10? Solution: We want Dmbenz = mbenz ! m*benz But mbenz = m*benz + RT ln xbenz so mbenz ! m*benz = RT ln xbenz And if xsolute = 0.10, then xbenz = 0.90 Thus Dmbenz = (2.479 kJ/mol) (ln 0.90) . = ! 0.26 kJ/mol

Raoult’s Law: Molecular Interpretation
Ideally Dilute Solutions Solutions of dissimilar li-quids can show strong devi-ations from Raoult’s law (green line at left) unless a substance has x > 0.90. However, the v.p. usually starts off as a straight line. This is embodied in Henry’s law, pB = KB xB and the slope of the line is the Henry’s-law constant. A solution which obeys Henry’s law is called an ideal-dilute solution.
Henry’s Law: Molecular Interpretation In ideally dilute solution, the solvent is almost like a pure liquid whereas the solute behaves very differently from a pure liquid. Solute Solvent

Solution: The v.p.’s are plotted vs. mol fraction. The data are fitted to a polynomial curve (using a computer program that has a curve-fitting function) and the tangent (slope) is calculated by evaluating the first derivative of the poly-nomial at xCHCl3 = 0.

Colligative Properties Vapor pressure lowering is one of the four colligative properties of the solvent. These are properties that depend only on the number concentration of particles of solute and not at all on the nature of the solute. (They do depend on the nature of the solvent.) The other three are: Boiling-point elevation DTb = KbB Freezing-point depression DTf = KfbB where bB is the molality of the solute B in the solution Osmotic pressure P . [B] RT where [B] is the molarity of the solute B in the solution
Boiling-point elevation. DTb = KbbB Freezing-point depression Boiling-point elevation DTb = KbbB Freezing-point depression DTf = KfbB where bB is the molality of the solute B in the solution
