2. Chapter Nineteen: Solutions
19.1 Water
19.2 Solutions
19.3 Acids, Bases, and pH

3. 19.2 Water and solutions
A solution is a mixture of two or more substances that is uniform at the molecular level.

4. 19.2 Water as a mixture Muddy water not a solution.
Muddy water is heterogeneous because it contains larger particles of soil or plant debris.

5. 19.2 Water and solutions
Although we often think of solutions as mixtures of solids in liquids, solutions exist in every phase; solid, liquid, or gas.
Solutions of two or more solids are called alloys.
Steel is an alloy (solution) of iron and carbon.

6. 19.2 Suspensions
In a mixture called a suspension the particles can range widely in size.
Muddy water, a suspension, will settle when it is left still for a period of time.

7. 19.2 Colloids
Colloids are mixtures, and look like solutions, but their particles are too small to settle to the bottom of their container over time.
Examples of colloids are mayonnaise, egg whites, and gelatin.

8. 19.2 Tyndall effect
Tyndall effect is occurring if you shine a flashlight through a jar of liquid and see the light beam.

9. First, try filtering it, then look for the Tyndall effect.
19.2 Types of mixtures
How can you tell the difference between a solution, a colloid and a suspension?
First, try filtering it, then look for the Tyndall effect.

10. 19.2 Water and solutions
A solution contains at least two components: a solvent, and a solute.
The solvent is the part of a mixture that is present in the greatest amount.
Which of these is the solvent?

11. 19.2 Water and solutions
When the solute particles are evenly distributed throughout the solvent, we say that the solute has dissolved.

12. On the molecular level, dissolving of a solid (like sugar) occurs when molecules of solvent interact with and separate molecules of solute

13. 19.2 Solubility
The term solubility means the amount of solute (if any) that can be dissolved in a volume of solvent.
Is there a limit for how much seltzer (solute) can dissolve in water (solvent)?

14. 19.2 Solubility Chalk and talc do not have solubility values.
These substances are insoluble in water because they do not dissolve in water.

15. 19.2 Solubility
A solution is saturated if it contains as much solute as the solvent can dissolve.
Any solute added in excess of the substance’s solubility will not dissolve.
What will happen to any un-dissolved gas when you unscrew the cap of seltzer water?

16. Seawater is a solution of water, salt, and other minerals.
Solving Problems
Seawater is a solution of water, salt, and other minerals.
How much salt can dissolve in 200 mL of water at 25 °C?
Looking for:
…grams of solute
Given
… v = 200 mL; T = 25 C

17. Solving Problems Looking for: Given Relationships: Solution
…grams of solute
Given
… v = 200 mL water; T = 25 C
Relationships:
Solubility table for reference
37.7 g of salts in 100 mL water at 25 °C
Solution
…if there are 37.7 g salt/100 mL water, then
“x” g/ 200 mL water
= 75.4 g salts are need in 200 mL of water

18. 19.2 Solubility
A solution is saturated if it contains as much solute as the solvent can hold.
An examples of a saturated solution is air.
Air can be saturated with water. (We call it humidity!)

19. 19.2 Solubility graphs
Solubility values for three solutes are plotted in this temperature-solubility graph.

20. 19.2 Solubility
For something to dissolve in water, the water molecules need to break the bonds between the solute molecules.
Water dissolves each substance differently because the chemical bond strengths between atoms found in different solutes are not the same.

21. 19.2 Concentration
In chemistry, it is important to know the exact concentration of a solution—that is the exact amount of solute dissolved in a given amount of solvent.

22. 19.2 Concentration
Two other common ways of expressing the concentration of a solution are molarity and mass percent.

23. 19.2 Concentration
Molarity is equal to the moles of solute per liter of solution.

24. 19.2 Concentration
The mass percent of a solution is equal to the mass of the solute divided by the total mass of the solution multiplied by 100%.

25. What is the molarity of this solution?
Solving Problems
How many grams of salt (NaCl) do you need to make 500 grams of a solution with a mass percent of 5% salt? The formula mass of NaCl is 58.4 g/mol.
What is the molarity of this solution?
Looking for:
…grams of solute
Given
… mass solvent = 500 g; concentration = 5%
…formula mass = 58.4 g/mol

26. Relationships: Solution Solving Problems
Mass percent = mass of solute x 100%
total mass of solution
Molarity = moles of solution
liter of solution
Solution
… 5% = (mass of salt ÷ 500 g) × 100%
…0.05 × 500 g = 25 g
# of moles = 25 g = .4 moles
58.4 g/mol
Molarity = .4 mol/.5 L = M solution

27. 19.2 Equilibrium
When a solute like sugar is mixed with a solvent like water, two processes are actually going on continuously.
Molecules of solute dissolve and go into solution.
Molecules of solute come out of solution and become “un-dissolved.”
When the rate of dissolving equals the rate of coming out of solution, we say equilibrium has been reached.

28. 19.2 Equilibrium
When a solute like sugar is mixed with a solvent like water, two processes are actually going on continuously.
Molecules of solute dissolve and go into solution.
Molecules of solute come out of solution and become “un-dissolved.”
When the rate of dissolving equals the rate of coming out of solution, we say equilibrium has been reached.

29. 19.2 Equilibrium
When a solution is unsaturated its concentration is lower than the maximum solubility.
A supersaturated solution means there is more dissolved solute than the maximum solubility.

31. 19.2 Solubility of gases in liquids
Some solutions have a gas as the solute.
When you drink carbonated soda, the fizz comes from dissolved carbon dioxide gas (CO2).

32. 19.2 Solubility of gases in liquids
When temperature increases, the solubility of gases in liquid decreases.

33. 19.2 Solubility of gases in liquids
The variety and no. or organisms is controlled somewhat by the relationship between dissolved oxygen and temperature.

34. 19.2 Solubility of gases in liquids
Oil and vinegar salad dressing separates because oil is not soluble in water.
Liquids that are not soluble in water may be soluble in other solvents.
