Solutions Flashcards
Molarity (M)
Moles of solute/Liters of solution
Molality (m)
Moles of solute/ kg of solvent
Mass percent: (w/w)%
(Grams of solute/grams of solution) x 100
Mass Percent: (w/v)%
(Grams of solute/mL of solution) x 100
Mass Percent: (v/v)%
(mL of solute/mL solution) x 100
Mole Fraction
Moles A/ total moles
Colligative Properties Definition
Properties that depend only on the number of solute particles present, not on the identity of the solute particles
Colligative Properties Examples
Vapor pressure depression
Boiling point elevation
Melting point depression
Osmotic pressure
Adding a solute to a liquid will ____ vapor pressure of the solvent.
Decrease
Raoult’s Law (Vapor Pressure)
VPsolution = Xsolvent x VPpure solvent
Mole Fraction for a Solvent
moles of solvent/total moles of solution
How is vapor pressure related to boiling point
As vapor pressure decreases, boiling point increases
Van’t Hoff Factor
Covalent molecules: 1
Ionic compounds: number of ions
Boiling Point Elevation
TBsolution-TBsolvent = iKbm
Freezing Point Depression
Tfsolvent-Tfsolution = iKfm
