Review:
Solution: a homogeneous mixture
Solute: the component that is dissolved in solvent
-- usually in smaller amount
• Solvent: medium into which solutes are mixed
-- usually in greater amount (usually liquid)
solubility: amount (mass) of solute that forms saturated
solution with given mass of solvent at specific
temp
saturated solution: contains as much solute as can be
dissolved (at specific temp)
unsaturated solution: can dissolve more solute
supersaturated solution: contains more solute than is
actually stable at given temp

= formed by cooling saturated solution from a higher
temperature (solutes typically more soluble at
higher temperatures)
Molecular” View of Solution Process:
Intermolecular forces important in formation of a solution
-- disruption of solute-solute interactions
-- disruption of solvent-solvent interactions
-- formation of solute-solvent interactions (solute
solvated by solvent)

ΔH1 = disruption of solute-solute
ΔH2 = disruption of solvent-solvent
ΔH3 = formation of solute-solvent
ΔHsoln = enthalpy of solution = heat of solution
ΔHsoln > 0 (endothermic) if ΔH3 < ΔH1 + ΔH2
ΔHsoln < 0 (exothermic) if ΔH3 > ΔH1 + ΔH2
• solutions of gases in liquids:
-- ΔHsoln usually < 0 (exothermic)
= don’t need to break solute-solute interactions,
so ΔH1 ~ 0
• Solubility of solute in a solvent can be predicted:
“like dissolves like” (in terms of IM forces)
-- the more similar the IM forces (solvent vs solute),
the more likely the solute will dissolve

Document Summary

Review: solution: a homogeneous mixture, solute: the component that is dissolved in solvent. - usually in smaller amount: solvent: medium into which solutes are mixed. = formed by cooling saturated solution from a higher temperature (solutes typically more soluble at higher temperatures) saturated supersaturated unsaturated. Molecular view of solution process: intermolecular forces important in formation of a solution supersaturated heat supersaturated. - formation of solute-solvent interactions (solute solvated by solvent) Hsoln = enthalpy of solution = heat of solution. 3 soln: solutions of gases in liquids: Hsoln > 0 (endothermic) if h3 < h1 + h2. Hsoln < 0 (exothermic) if h3 > h1 + h2. = don"t need to break solute-solute interactions: solubility of solute in a solvent can be predicted: so h1 ~ 0. Like dissolves like (in terms of im forces) - the more similar the im forces (solvent vs solute), the more likely the solute will dissolve. = ccl4 dissolves in benzene (c6h6) (both nonpolar)
