HYS - CH:9 - Solubility Flashcards
solute
thing being dissolved
solvent
material doing the dissolving
units of solubility
mass per unit volume of solvent
-molarity and molality
molar solubility
- moles/Liter
solubilty product Ksp
molality
describes number of moles of solute being dissolved and what mass of solvent the solute is dissolved in
units moles of solute/kilograms of solvent
Molarity, M and preperation
how many moles of a solute are dissolved in each liter of a solvent
given the moles of solute we can find the volume
units moles/L
to prepare we
1. add solute to solution with less than target volume to not create too much of solution
2. once dissolved we add solvent until desired molarity is reached
3. measuring of volume must be done after dissolving since volume of seperate components wont add
4. divide volume by moles/volume to get molarity
why are molality and molarity nearly equivelant
1 L water ~ 1 kg water
for non aqeous solvents they can differ a lot
molAR and litER means
molarity uses liters of solvent
molAL and kilogrAM means
molality is for kg of solvent
saturated solution
as much solute dissolved as can be dissolved in that solution
molar solubility
The molar solubility is the maximum moles of dissolved solute per one liter of solvent. Notice that the unit for molar solubility is moles per liter. That’s molarity!
units moles/Liter
(same as molarity)
solubility product
special case of equilibrium constant
Ksp = [only products]
bc solids and pure liquids dont appear in equilibrium constants we have no denominator
The solubility product is a kind of equilibrium constant and its value depends on temperature. it is the equilibrium constant for a solid substance dissolving in an aqueous solution. It represents the level at which a solute dissolves in solution
- for when solution is saturated
- Ksp usually increases with an increase in temperature due to increased solubility.
equilibrium constant K
[products]/[reactants] with coeffficients of equation becoming exponents
. T/f? are Ksp temp and substance dependent
T
super saturated
A supersaturated solution is a solution that contains more than the maximum amount of solute that is capable of being dissolved at a given temperature
ion product: unsaturated, saturated, supersaturated
K sp equation but with current conditions
compare Ksp to IP
Ksp is a general property of solute in solvent
IP is a specific description of a solution
IP<Ksp: unsaturated less than max solute
IP = Ksp: saturated limit of solute, equilibrium
IP>Ksp: supersaturared with too much solute
