SOME DEFINITIONS
A solution is a
_______________
mixture of 2 or more
substances in a single
phase.
One constituent is
usually regarded as the
SOLVENT and the
others as SOLUTES.
SOME DEFINITIONS
Solutions are
homogeneous
mixtures of two or
more pure
substances.
In a solution, the
solute is dispersed
uniformly throughout
the solvent.
PARTS OF A SOLUTION
ACTIVITY 2.1
Sugar is the smaller quantity that is dissolving. Therefore it the solute and water is the solvent.
Since both water and isopropyl alcohol are liquids, the one smaller volume, is the solute and
water is the solvent.
Iodine is the solute and ethyl alcohol is the solvent.
Ethanol is the solvent and water is the solute.

HOW SOLUTIONS ARE
FORMED?
DEFINE SOLUTIONS
Solutions are
homogeneous
mixtures of two or
more pure
substances.
In a solution, the
solute is dispersed
uniformly throughout
the solvent.
How Does a Solution Form?
1. Solvent molecules attracted to surface ions.
2. Each ion is surrounded by solvent molecules.
3. Enthalpy (DH) changes with each interaction
broken or formed.
Isotonic
solutions are equal
in their solute
concentrations.
We say that they
are isotonic to
each other.
QUESTIONS THAT NEEDS SOLUTIONS…
• is the process by
which a solid,
liquid or gas
forms a solution
in a solvent.
DISSOLUTION PROCESS IN SOLIDS…
Soluble
a substance that
dissolves in a solvent
Insoluble
a substance that
does not dissolve in
a solvent (sand is
insoluble in water)

Miscible
Two liquids that are
soluble in each other

SOLVENT WATER KEROSENE ACETONE ALCOHOL
Supersaturated
Solvent holds more solute than is normally possible at that
temperature.
These solutions are unstable; crystallization can often be
stimulated by adding a “seed crystal” or scratching the side
of the flask.
FACTORS AFFECTING
SOLUBILITY
Factors Affecting Solubility
• Chemists use the
axiom
• “like dissolves like”
Polar substances
tend to dissolve in
polar solvents.
Nonpolar substances
tend to dissolve in
nonpolar solvents.
LABORATORY ACTIVITY 2.8
FACTORS SOLUBILITY
is not water-
soluble.
Factors Affecting Solubility
• Vitamin A is soluble in nonpolar compounds
(like fats).
• Vitamin C is soluble in water.
Which vitamin is water
soluble and which is fat
soluble?
HEALTH APPLICATION
Gases in Solution
• In general, the
solubility of gases in
water increases with
increasing mass.
Why?
• Larger molecules
have stronger
dispersion forces.
Gases in Solution
• The solubility of

to its pressure.
Henry’s Law
States that:
Henry’s Law
Sg = kPg
Where:
• Sg is the solubility of the
gas;
• k is the Henry’s law
constant for that gas in
that solvent;
• Pg is the partial pressure of
the gas above the liquid.
