CHAPTER 16: SOLUTIONS
Solute and Solvent
Solute is the substance being dissolved.
Solvent is the substance doing the dissolving.
Example: Salt and Water. We dissolve salt in water.
Therefore, the salt is the solute and the water is the solvent.
Why is water called the universal solvent?
REVIEW
Forming a Solution• The composition (what they are made out of) of the
solvent and solute determine whether a substance will dissolve.
How FAST will the substance dissolve?• This depends on three things:• 1. Stirring: Increase of decrease rate?• 2. Temperature: Increase or decrease rate?• 3. Particle Size: The more surface area exposed, the
faster it will dissolve.
PART 1: PROPERTIES OF SOLUTIONS
What amount of a substance will dissolve?
Particles move from a solid into a solution. But how much can be dissolved?
Solubility describes the amount of substance that can be dissolved by a certain quantity of a solvent at a certain temp and pressure until the
solution becomes saturated.
PART 2: SOLUBILITY
Different Types of Solutions:
• Saturated Solution: The maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at a specific temp and pressure.
• Unsaturated Solution: A solution that contains less solute than required to be a saturated solution and a certain temp and pressure.
• Supersaturated Solution: contains more solute than it can theoretically hold at a given temperature.
• Miscible Solution: when two liquids will dissolve into one another. There is no separation.
• Immiscible: liquids that are not soluble in each other. You can tell if it is immiscible by observing layers.

What do YOU think?What type of solution is being utilized?
How are they making that solution?
ROCK CANDY EXPLAINED
• 1. Temperature: Solubility of MOST substances increases as temperature increases.
• You can dissolve more solute in the solvent as you increase the temperature. Think about how we made our rock candy.
• EXCEPTION: Gas solubility increases as temperature decreases.
FACTORS THAT AFFECT SOLUBILITY
• 2. Pressure: Changes in pressure doesn’t affect the solubility of solids and liquids, but it greatly influences the solubility of gases.
• As pressure increases, the solubility of gases also increases. Use Henry’s Law for calculations.
• S = solubility• P = pressure• Directly Proportional
FACTORS THAT AFFECT SOLUBILITY
How would I describe solubility in terms of UNITS?
Solubility is usually expressed in grams of solute per 100g of solvent.
• Example: 36g of sodium chloride in 100g of water at 25 degC.
• Examples in terms of saturation: If 36g of NaCl is added to 100g water, it will dissolve completely, but if I added 1 more gram of NaCl, only 0.2g of that will dissolve. Therefore, 36.2g of NaCl in 100g of water is a SATURATED solution.
• How would I make it super saturated??
SOLUBILITY OF SOLUTIONS
Concentration: a measure of the amount of solute that is dissolved in a given quantity of solvent.
Dilute Solution: a weak concentration. Contains small amount of solute.
Concentrated Solution: strong concentration. Contains a large amount of solute.
PART 3: CONCENTRATIONS

MOLARITY
Moles of solute dissolved in 1 Liter of solution.
CONCENTRATIONS
LET’S MAKE A SOLUTION
Let’s determine the molarity of a solution that we
make. Let’s start with 10
grams of sodium chloride and
add it to a 1-L volumetric flask half filled with distilled water.
LETS MAKE A SOLUTION
Swirl the flask carefully to dissolve the solute.
LETS MAKE A SOLUTION
Fill the flask with water exactly to the 1-L mark.
What is the concentration of the solution in molarity?
Answer: 0.171M
This will work with ANY volumetric flask. Big or small. We can then calculate the molarity
(concentration) of our solution.
LETS MAKE A SOLUTION
• How do we convert mL to L?
Find the number of moles of solute in a solution…
WHAT IF YOU KNOW THE MOLARITY?
• We can also convert moles to grams.
Diluting a solution reduces the number of moles per unit volume. The number of moles of solute remains unchanged.

DILUTIONS
To prepare 100 ml of MgSO4 from a stock solution of 0.171M NaCl, a student first measures 10 mL of the stock solution with a 10-mL pipet.
DILUTIONS
She then transfers the 10 mL to a 100-mL volumetric flask.
DILUTIONS
Finally, she carefully adds water to the mark to make 100 mL of solution. What is the final concentration?
Use M1 x V1 = M2 x V2
Answer: 0.0171
