Factors Affectingsolubility

We learned there are 3 things that affect the RATE solids dissolve in liquids.
1)Temperature2) Surface area3) Stirring
It turns out that there are also 3 things that canAffect how much solute will dissolve in a solvent
1) The Nature of solute & solvent2) The Temperature3)The Pressure (when dealing w/gases)
33
The Nature of ThingsThe Nature of ThingsWhen we talk about the NATURE of solute & solventwe are referring to their similarities in Polarity
In other words are the solute and solvent…
a) molecules (if so are they non-polar or polar) b) ionic
For example, how would you classify the following:
H20 CCL4 CHCl3CH3CH2OH Br2 NH4NO3Ca(OH)2 KI

The Nature of ThingsThe Nature of Things
- polar solvents will dissolve polar solutes - non-polar solvents will dissolve non-polar solutesBUT - In general ONLY water will dissolve Ionic compounds In other words …
the principal of “LIKE DISSOLVES LIKE”
Compounds that are of similar polarity will in generalBe soluble in one another. So…

Since it’s polar why don’t we just classify it under Polar?
Well, it has something to do with the ends of this molecule.
Hey! What’s with theEthanol?
This molecule is Polarbut it dissolvesNon-polar solutes!

EthanolEthanolEthanol as a solvent has Unique properties. It behaves Like BOTH a polar and Non-polar solvent.
How does it do this? Ethanol, and solvents like it, haveboth polar and non-polar regions within the molecule
CH3CH2-OH
Non-polar endPolar end
Due to this duality the molecule is able to dissolve bothPolar and non-polar covalent solutes BUT NOT IONIC SALTS

TemperatureTemperatureWhen we consider the effect of temperature on Solubility we need to ask two questions:
1) Are we dissolving a solid in a liquid
2) Are we dissolving a gas in a liquid?
This is important because …The solubility of gases in liquids dec. with inc. temp. and …
The solubility of solids in liquids (in general) inc. with inc. temp

Gases & TemperatureGases & TemperatureLet’s consider gases in liquids first…
It is important to recognize that for most gases their Solubility in WATER is typically very low.
- At RT only 8mg of O2 will dissolve in 1000g H20
Consider a glass of soda
You pour it while sitting outside on a warm sunny day. The soda is at first very bubbly and refreshing but
after awhile it becomes “flat”. Why?
Because the solubility of CO2 (g) decreases as the sodaWarms up, and the excess gas leaves the liquid (as bubbles).
99
This relationship is true for all gases –
As temperature goes up
Inc
RT
ICE/WATER
- solubility of O2 at 0 deg C = 15mg /1000g H20
- solubility of O2 at 25 deg C = 8 mg /1000g H20
solubility goes down
1010
Gas Solubility Gas Solubility Some gases like CO2 have a higher solubility than other gasesBecause they can interact with water in a reversible reaction
CO2 + H2O H2CO3
Non-polar
Non-polar
Room Temp

SO… gas solubility decreases with increasing temperatureBut why is this?
As temperature increases so does KE and thus so does Molecular Velocity
Molecules of gas moving at higherVelocities can escape the intermolecular Force of Attraction between them &the Liquid more easily
It has to do with the KE of the dissolved gas molecule
KE = ½ mv2
As KE inc. Molecular Velocity Increases
1212
Total gas dissolvedTotal gas dissolvedOne last point. The total amount of dissolved gas is simplythe sum of the Solubility of allThe gases present.
Which means… theSolubility of eachGas Is independent Of the presence ofOther gases.

Solubility Of SolidsSolubility Of SolidsTable G in your reference table shows what the solubilityOf several solids and gases is as a function of temperature. These represent “saturation” curves
What does the x and Y axisTell us?
What is the solubility of KNO3At 50 deg C?
83g/100g H2O
What is the solubility of KCl in200g of water at 50 deg. C?
84g

Solubility CurvesSolubility CurvesUsing Table G …
What gases are represented?SO2, NH3, HCl
Which solute is least affectedBy temperature change?
NaClWhich solute is most affectedBy temperature change?
KNO3Which compound is least solubleat 20 deg. C?
KClO3Which compound is most soluble at 20 deg. C?
KI

Problem: If 100g of water at 100 deg C can dissolve 165g of NaNO3, how many grams of NaNO3 precipitate from solution (i.e. crystallize) as the solution is chilled to 20 deg. C?

Predicting SolubilityPredicting Solubility
Table F in the reference tables handbook will help you toPredict the solubility of an ionic compound.
Notice the table is divided into two sections:
- Ions that form Soluble Compounds
- Ions that form Insoluble Compounds
IMPORTANT: Each section lists EXCEPTIONS to the rule

Though you can refer to Table F you might want toRemember a few rules such as the following:
ALL COMPOUNDS OF GROUP 1 METALS ARE SOLUBLE
ALL AMMONIUM COMPOUNDS and ALL NITRATES ARE SOLUABLE
Li+ Na+ K+ Rb+ Cs+ Fr+
NH4 + NO3 -

Effect of PressureEffect of Pressure
2 rules regarding pressure…
1) Pressure HAS NO EFFECT on the solubility of solidsin liquids or liquids in liquids
AND …
2) Pressure has a BIG EFFECT on the solubility of a gasin a liquid.
For example … Consider what happens when you open a bottle of warm soda
2121
Why does soda FIZZOr the Can “POP” when opened?
Popping the top releasesThe pressure …
So what happens to theSolubility of the gas inThe liquid?
Pressure allows more gas to dissolve in the liquid.

Henry’s LawHenry’s Law
The amount of a gas dissolved in a solution (C) isThe amount of a gas dissolved in a solution (C) is directlydirectly
proportionalproportional to the pressure of the gas (P) above the solution.to the pressure of the gas (P) above the solution.
C1 = C2P1 P2
In other words, if P doubles
then the concentration of the Gas doubles
2323
Solubility of a gas Problem; Henry’s Law at work:
C1 = C2P1 P2
P1 P2
C1 = 9.5
C2 = 38 g/100ml9.5 = C22 8
If the initial pressure of a gas over a liquid is 2 atm. and theSolubility of the gas is 9.5 mg per 100g of water what is theSolubility of the gas if the pressure of the gas is increased To 8 atm.
