Important Points to Remember in Chapter -1 - Solutions from Embibe Experts Gamma Question Bank for Engineering Chemistry Solutions

1. Solution:

A homogeneous mixture of two or more non-reacting substances is known as solution, Homogeneity or heterogeneity depends upon particle size and states of matter present in the solution. Every solution is made up of a solvent (present in larger quantity) and one or more solute (present in smaller quantity).

2. Units of Concentration:

(i) Molarity M:

It is the number of moles of solute present per litre of solution.

M=nV=WMwVinlitre=WMw1000Vincc

M×Vin cc=WMw1000

M×VmL= millimoles

Molarity changes with temperature of the solution. Increase in temperature generally decreases the molarity. It is the most convenient method to express concentration of the solution. On dilution, molarity decreases.

(ii) Molality m:

Number of moles n of solute present per kg of solvent.

m=nWin kg=WMWin kg=WMWin gsolvent 1000

It is independent of temperature since no volume factor is involved in the equation.

(iii) Mole fraction X:

It is the ratio of number of moles of one component to the total number of moles present in the solution.

For a system having two components A and B,

XA=nAnA+nB,  XB=nBnA+nB

XA+XB=1

Mole fraction is also independent of temperature.

(iv) In terms of %

% by weight = Wt. of solute  Wt. of solution ×100

% weight by volume = Wt.of solute  Vol. of solution ×100 (In case of solid dissolved in a liquid)

% by volume = Volume of solute  Volume of solution ×100 (In case of liquid dissolved in another liquid)

PPM= No. of parts of solute  No. of parts of solution ×106

% by weight is independent of temperature while % by volume are temperature dependent.

3. Henry’ s Law:

Solubility of a gas at a given temperature in a solvent is directly proportional to its partial pressure, if P is the partial pressure of a gas and Xg is its mole fraction in solution. Then P=KHXg, where KH is Henry's law constant for that gas.

4. Vapour Pressure and Raoult’s law:

The pressure exerted by the vapour at the free surface of liquid (provided system is closed) is known as its vapour pressure. The V.P. of a pure liquid is always greater than its solution (in case of non-volatile solute).

(i) Raoult’s Law for a solution having non-volatile solute.

Xsolute =P-PsP

Xsolute  Mole fraction of solute in solution

P V.P. of pure solvent

Ps V.P. of solution

i.e., relative lowering of vapour pressure is equal to the mole fraction of solute.

(ii) Raoult's Law of miscible liquid-liquid solution

For ideal solution, the partial vapour pressure is directly proportional to their mole fraction at constant temperature. For two components A and B in liquid solution.

PA=PAXA

PB=PBXB

The total pressure PTotal=PA+PB=PAXA+PBXB

Most of the solutions show appreciable deviations from ideal behavior known as real or non-ideal solution. In some cases, the deviation is +ve while in some cases deviation is -ve.

5. Ideal and non-ideal Solutions:

The solutions which obey Raoult's law are ideal solutions and those which do not obey Raoult's law form non-ideal solution.

  Ideal Solution Non-Ideal Solution  
    Positive Deviation Negative Deviation

6. Colligative Properties:

A colligative property of a solution is one that depends on the number of particles of solute in solution.

(i) Relative lowering of vapour pressure, p-psp=xsolute.

(ii) Osmotic pressure,  π=CRT.

(iii) Elevation of boiling point, Tb=kbm

(iv) Depression in freezing point, Tf=kfm.

7. Relative Lowering of V.P.:

The relative lowering in V.P. of an ideal solution is equal to the mole fraction of solute at that temperature.

pA°-pApA°=xB=n2n1+n2

n2n1=w2M2M1w1 for dilute solutions.

Determination of molecular masses by relative lowering in vapour pressure.

pA°-pApA°=wmMW

w= Wt. of solute

m= Mol. wt. of solute

W= Wt. of solvent

M= Mol. wt. of solvent

8. Osmotic Pressure:

(i) π=ρgh

Where, ρ= density of soln., h= equilibrium height.

(ii) Van’t Hoff Formula (For calculation of O.P.)

π=CST

π=CRT=nVRT (just like ideal gas equation)

C= total conc. of all types of particles.

=C1+C2+C3+

=n1+n2+n3+V

Note: If V1mL of C1 conc. +V2mL of C2 conc. are mixed

π=C1V1+C2V2V1+V2RT

π=π1V1-π2V2V1+V2

9. Type of Solutions:

(i) Isotonic solution - Two solutions having same osmotic pressure.

π1=π2 (at same temp.)

(ii) Hypertonic - If π1>π21st  solution is hypertonic solution w.r.t. 2nd solution.

(iii) Hypotonic – If π1>π2 2nd solution is hypotonic w.r.t. 1st solution.

10. Elevation of Boiling Point:

Tb=kbm

Where, Kb: Molal elevation constant or ebullioscopic constant, it is the increase in boiling point when the molality of the solution is unity.

Tb=Kbm, when m=1, Tb=Kb

MB=WBTb1000WAKb

Kb=MRTb21000Hvap

11. Depression in Freezing Point:

Tf=kfm.

Whdere, Kf : Molal depression constant. or cryoscopic constant, it is the decrease in freezing point when the molality of solution is unity.

Tf=Kfm when, m=1, Tf=Kf

MB=KfWBTfWA1000

Kf=MRTf21000Hfusion 

Note: Kb and Kf are intensive properties of solvent and do not depend upon the quantity and nature of solute.

12. Abnormal Molecular mass and Van't Hoff Factor i:

i= Experimental values of Colligative property  Calculated value of colligative property 

= Observed value of Colligative property  Normal value of the same property 

= Normal moleculer mass  Observed moleculer mass 

=McalMobs

Since Colligative property 1 Molecular mass of solute 

if i=1, no molecular association or dissociation takes place.

if i<1, molecular association takes place.

if i>1, molecular dissociation takes place.

For substances undergoing association or dissociation in the solution.

ΔTb=iKbm

ΔTf=iKfm

π=iCRT

13. Relation between degree of association or dissociation α & Van't Hoff's Factor i:

For association i=1+α1n-1 or α=ni-11-n

where n= Number of particles that associate.

For dissociation i=1+αn-1 or α=i-1n-1

where n= Number of particles obtained on dissociation.
