Physiochemical Properties of Solutions Flashcards
Which type of solutions are unstable?
Supersaturated
The solubility of gases in liquids ________ with increasing temperature
decrease
The solubility of gases in liquids decrease with _________ temperature
increasing
Why does increasing temperature decrease solubility in gases?
Provides energy that overcomes the attractive forces between the gas and solvent molecules, thereby allowing the gas to escape
When does Henry’s Law not apply?
Gases that react with solvents
What is Henry’s Law?
At a constant temperature, the solubility of a gas (Cg) in a solvent increases as the partial pressure (Pg) of the gas above the solution increases.
What does the dosage form contain?
API + Excipient
Which are more water soluble, monovalent or multivalent molecules?
Monovalent
What is the relation between molecular weight and water solubility?
Increase weight = decreased solubilty
What is the relation between branching and water solubility?
More branches = increased solubilty
What is the relation between polar groups and water solubility?
More polar groups = increased solubility
What is the relation between halogens and water solubility?
More halogens = decreased solubility
What is Lipinski’s Rule of Five?
Compound should be: <500 molecular weight LogP = <5 H Bond Donors <5 H Bond Acceptor <10
