1 Unit 8 – Solutions Chapter 15
Factors Affecting Solution Formation Types of Solutions Solubility Curves Unit 8 – Solutions Chapter 15

2 Solution Formation Factors that affect solution formation
Temperature Usually an increase in temperature means and increase in solubility (more solute dissolves) Except for gases. The increase in temperature means less solubility for a gas. *A higher temperature means the solute will dissolve faster due to more collisions between solvent and solute molecules

3 Increase in Surface Area
Solute that is crushed in smaller pieces will dissolve faster than big chunks. More contact between solute and solvent. Agitation Mixing of solution will increase number of collisions of solute and solvent molecules. In general, anything that increases contact between solute and solvent will increase solubility!

4 Pressure- (For Dissolved Gases Only)
Increase in pressure will increase the solubility of a gas in a liquid

5 Types of Solutions Unsaturated Solutions – Solutions that can still dissolve more solute. Saturated Solutions – Solutions that have dissolved as much as they possibly can. Any more solute added would settle at the bottom and not dissolve. Supersaturated Solutions - Solutions that contain even more dissolved solute than saturated solutions. Can happen when some solvent evaporates from a saturated solution. It will form crystals when the solution is disturbed.

7 SOLUBILITY CURVES Solubility – The amount of solute required to form a saturated solution with a specific amount of solvent at a specific temperature. Expressed as grams of solute/100 grams of solvent

8 Examples The solubility of NaCl in water at oC is 40grams/100 grams of water How many grams of NaCl should dissolve in 250 grams of water at 80oC? 250 grams H2O 40 grams NaCl 100 grams H2O = 100 grams NaCl will dissolve

9 Things to remember when reading a solubility curve graph
The line of the curve represents a saturated solution for that temperature. Above this line means you have a supersaturated solution. Below this line means you have an unsaturated solution.

10 1. If you dissolve 40 grams of KCl in 100 grams of water at 80oC, what type of solution will you have? -Unsaturated 2. If you dissolve 70grams of NH4Cl in 100 grams of water at 50oC, what type of solution will you have? - Super saturated 3. If you dissolve 20 grams of KClO3 in 100 grams of water at 50oC, what type of solution will you have? - Saturated (on the line)
