Solvents, Solutes, and Solutions

Natural Water
• Water is never pure in nature, there are always impurities… Why??
• Because water dissolves and dissociates so many things, there are always “extras” in the aqueous system
![Page 3: Water and Aqueous Solutions](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062723/56813d42550346895da6ff11/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
What is a Solution?
• Solutions are homogeneous and contain a – Solute (which is the thing being dissolved) AND A – Solvent (the thing doing the dissolving)
• These particles in solution are very tiny and therefore do not settle back out.
• They also do not separate through a filter!!

Solubilities of Solids
• The greater the surface area, the faster the dissolving process.
• Dissolving only takes place at the surface of substances. The solvent cannot penetrate the solute, which make it take longer to dissolve bigger “chunks”
• Shaking will also increase the speed. Why?

Temperature
• Solubilities of solids generally increase with temperature.
• Increasing the temperature increases the speed of the molecules which increases the number of collisions. This speeds up the solvent’s ability to dissolve the solute.

Solubility and Polarity
• “Like dissolves Like” … meaning _________________
• Miscible – describes two or more liquids that are able to dissolve into each other in various proportions.
• If two substances are immiscible, than they will not mix together.

Likes Dissolve Likes• Water is POLAR!!!– Meaning it has a (+) side and a (-) side– This property enables it to surround and dissolve (or
dissociate) a large range of other polar substances
• Water will ONLY dissolve other POLAR things
• If I want to dissolve a nonpolar substance into a solvent what should I use? ______________

Ionic Dissociation
• The (+ H) end of water will tear off the ______ end of the salts and the (- O) side will _______ _____________________________________.
• After this “break down” you have free-floating ions in solution… this is now able to carry a charge or is _____________________.

Concept Check
• Why is ethanol miscible in water?
• Why do sugar cubes dissolve more slowly in water than granulated sugar?
• What factors are involved in determining the solubility of an ionic salt?
• You keep adding sugar to a cold cup of coffee. You stir it by eventually you notice sugar on the bottom. Explain why no more sugar dissolves.

Conductivity
• Some substances have the ability to conduct an electric current. This depends on whether or not it contains charged particles that are able to move freely around the solution.
• An electrolyte is a substance that dissolves in water to give the solution the ability to conduct an electric current.

Conductivity
• A nonelectrolyte is a liquid or solid substance that does not allow the flow of an electric current, either in solution or in its pure state, such as water or sucrose.
• Ionic salts dissociate into their individual charged ions that move around the solution freely. Would this be an electrolyte or a nonelectrolyte?

Water of Hydration
• Some crystals need the H2O molecules to hold it all in place and stay stable.
• A compound that has water holding it together is know as a hydrated compound.
• How could you determine how much water is in a hydrated compound????

Hydrated Compounds
CuSO4 * 5H2O

Heterogeneous Mixtures
• Suspensions – mixtures that the particles settle out after left to sit.– Example: clay in water or milk sitting
• Colloids – particle size is between that of suspensions and true solutions– Example: aerosol sprays and smoke

Tyndall Effect• Colloidal particles
exhibit the Tyndall Effect – The scattering of
light in all directions
• Think about a really foggy day with your headlights

Emulsions
• Emulsions are colloidal dispersions of liquids in liquids
• Soap and detergents are emulsifying agents because they help to “take into solution” (kind of) the oils and grease stains

Concept Check… Again
• Sea water is a great conductor. Why?
• Tap water is also very good because it is not distilled (still contains ions and minerals).– Do not use electrical devices by water
