Solutions and Acid/Base

Solutions

Solutions

• Solute – substance in lower concentration, dissolved

• Solvent – substance in higher concentration• Water is a universal solvent

Electrolyte vs. Non-electrolyte

• Electrolyte conducts electricity in solution due to the formation of ions• Acids, bases, most salts (ionic compounds)

• Non-electrolyte does not conduct electricity• Sugar, ethanol (many covalent compounds)

Rate of solution formation

• Stirring• Temperature• Surface area

• How would each of these affect solution formation?

Solubility

• Amount of solute that will dissolve in a given quantity of a solvent at a specific temperature and pressure to produce a saturated solution

• Expressed in grams of solute per 100 g of solvent

Solubility

• Unsaturated – able to dissolve more solute if added• Saturated – maximum amount of solute dissolved for the temperature

and pressure• Supersaturated – contains more solute than possible due to a slow

temperature drop

Factors affecting solubility

• Temperature – most increase solubility with temperature, but a few drop• Solubility of gases in liquid solvent is higher at lower temperatures• Best seen on solubility graph

• Pressure – does not affect solids or liquid solutes as much as gas solutes• Solubility increases with pressure

Solubility Graphs• Think: How does

solubility change as temperature increases? • Is there any

compound that does not follow the trend? Why might that be?

1. A solution of sodium nitrate at 20 ⁰ C has 100 g dissolved. Is it saturated, unsaturated, or supersaturated?

2. How much KNO3 would need to be added to a solution containing 25 grams at 37 ⁰C in order to make the solution saturated?

1. A solution of sodium nitrate at 20 ⁰ C has 100 g dissolved. Is it saturated, unsaturated, or supersaturated? above the line = super saturated

2. How much KNO3 would need to be added to a solution containing 25 grams at 37 ⁰C in order to make the solution saturated? 25 grams

Concentration calculations

• Molarity = Moles of solute / liters of solution

• Dilutions = M1 x V1 = M2 x V2

• Percent by volume = (V solute/V solution) x 100%

• Percent by mass = (mass solute / mass solution) x 100%

Molarity

• Intravenous (IV) saline solutions are often administered to patients in the hospital. One saline solution contains 0.90 g NaCl in exactly 100 mL of solution. What is the molarity of the solution?

• Molarity = moles per liter• 0.90 g NaCl / 58.44 g/mol = 0.015 mol• 100 mL = 0.1 L• 0.015 mol/0.1 L = 0.15 M (0.15 mol/L)

Molarity

• Household laundry bleach is a dilute aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO). How many moles of solute are present in 1.5 L of 0.70 M NaClO?

Dilutions

• How many milliliters of aqueous 2.00 M MgSO4 solution must be diluted with water to prepare 100.0 mL of aqueous 0.400 M MgSO4?

Percent by volume

• What is the percent by volume of ethanol (C2H6O) in the final solution when 85 mL of ethanol is diluted to a volume of 250 mL with water?

Percent by mass

• If you were making a 2000 g solution of glucose that has a 2.8% (m/m) concentration, how much glucose should you use?

Colligative property summary

• http://www.chemistryexplained.com/Ce-Co/Colligative-Properties.html

• Freezing point depression (solute lowers point of freezing)• Boiling point elevation (solute raises point of boiling)

Acids, Bases, SaltsChapter 19

Acids

• Hydrogen-containing compounds that ionize to yield hydrogen ions in aqueous solution• Acids are hydrogen-ion donors

Acids

• Properties• Sour taste• Electrolytes• React with metals• Change color of indicator• (litmus paper red)• (phenolphthalein clear)

• Examples• Acetic acid (vinegar)• Citric acid (in candy, citrus fruit,

soda)• HCl, H2SO4, HNO3

Bases

• Compounds that ionize to yield hydroxide ions in aqueous solution• Bases are hydrogen-ion acceptors

Bases

• Properties• Bitter taste• Slippery feel• Electrolyte• Change color of indicator• (litmus paper blue)• (phenolphthalein pink)

• Examples• Soap• Milk of magnesia

Ionization (dissociation)

• Ionization – becoming an ion• Dissociation – breaking into smaller particles• All dissociate, only some ionize

Strong and weak

• Strong – dissociate almost completely in water

• Weak – only dissociate slightly in water

Concentration vs. Strength

• Concentrated/dilute – how much (moles) dissolved in water

• Strong/weak – how ionized/dissociated in solution

• HCl is a strong acid, but can be made into a dilute solution. • Vinegar is a dilute solution of a weak acid.

Acid Base Neutralization Reaction

• Acids and bases react to neutralize and form salt and water

• HCl + NaOH NaCl + H2O

• Salt = anion from an acid and cation from a base

Ion product constant for water

• For aqueous solutions, the product of the hydrogen-ion concentration and the hydroxide-ion concentration equals 1.0 x 10-14

• Kw = [H+] x [OH-] = 1.0 x 10-14

• Acidic [H+] greater than [OH-] • (greater than 1 x 10-7)

• Candies are slightly acidic. If the [H+] in a solution is 4.5 x 10-6 M, is the solution acidic, basic, or neutral? What is the [OH-] of this solution?

pH scale and indicators

• 0-14• Negative logarithm of the hydrogen-ion concentration• pH = -log [H+]

pH scale and indicators

• pH = -log [H+]

Neutral solution is [H+] = 1 x 10-7 M pH = -log (1 x 10-7)pH = 7.0

• What is the pH of a solution with a hydrogen-ion concentration of 5.67 x 10-11 M?

• The pH of an unknown solution is 11.34. What is its hydrogen-ion concentration?

pOH

• pOH = -log[OH-]

• pH + pOH = 14

• What is the pH of a solution if [OH-] = 5.6 x 10-3 M?
