Lattice energy is
Amount of energy required when one mole of ionic crystal dissociates into its ions
Hydration energy is
Amount of energy released when one mole of ions undergo hydration
Solid dissolves in water when
Hydration energy > Lattice energy
Solid doesn’t dissolve in water when
Hydration energy < Lattice energy
Solubility increases with increase in temperature of
Endothermic reactions
Solubility decreases with increase in temperature of
Exothermic reactions
Pressure doesn’t have any significant effect in solubility of
Liquids and solids
Pressure have significant effect in solubility of
Gases
Henry’s law is
Mass of gas dissolved in a given volume of a liquid at a given temperature is directly proportional to pressure of the gas
m ∝ p
m = kP
k = Henry’s constant
Henry’s law is
Partial pressure of gas in vapour phase is proportional to the mole fraction of the gas in solution
P = K_h X K_h = Henry's constant X = mole fraction of gas
