Chapter 13: Control of Solubility
• Many of the forces we’ve talked about occur between ions/molecules in solutions
• Definition: A homogeneous mixture (only one phase)
• Examples: saltwater, tap water, gemstones, brass, air
• Made up of a solvent and a solute:Solvent: the substance present in the larger amount.
Solute: the other substance
• Dissolving depends on attractive forces and entropy
What we’ll cover:
• Definitions
• Control of Solubility
• Things that affect solubility
Part 1: Definitions
• There is a maximum amount of any solute that will dissolve in a given solvent
• If less than the maximum has been added, solution is unsaturatedIf the max or more than the max has been added, solution is saturatedCan also have Supersaturated solutions
• The concentration of a solution is the amount of solute that has been dissolved in a solvent.
• Many units of concentration:molarity (mol/L), weight % (g/g), ppm (mg/L)
SolubilityIf a solute will dissolve in a solvent, it is soluble.
Some solutes have limits,
some are infinitely soluble in a solvent.
Sugar: 200 g in 100 mL water at 20 ºCEthanol: infinitely soluble in waterGases are infinitely soluble in one another
Trends and Control of Solubility
General rules: 1. polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents2. nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solvents
“Like dissolves Like”
Oil and water don’t mix: is oil polar or nonpolar?
You try: which of these will dissolve in water?
CH3OH CH3CH3 NH3
For now, we are examining molecular compounds- not ionic compounds.
Hydrophilic
Hydrophobic

Introduction to Thermodynamic Control of the World
Enthalpy, H: Stronger bonds/IMFs are favored over weak ones.
Entropy, S: Freedom of movement is favored over constrained states.
Trends and Control of Solubility and Mixing: Why do some
things mix and others do not?What controls Solubility:
Enthalpy (enthalpy of solution)
Negative if new forces are stronger than original forces
Entropy
Depends on the entropy change of both the water and the solute.
Effects of Polarity
Why don’t water and oil mix?
1 2
50%50%1. Enthalpy: Water wants to keep H-bonds
2. Entropy: Water won’t form constricted arrangements
Why do Proteins Fold?
Without lipids, you’d fall apart.
What holds DNA together?
DNA, H-Bonding, and Entropy
Introduction to PolymersPolymers are long molecules made of repeating units, called monomers.
In general:
Specific example:
Common Addition Polymers
Forces between polymer chains: Crosslinks
Weak: Intermolecular force crosslinks
Strong: Colvalentbond crosslinks

Part 2: External Control of Solubility
Temperature and Pressure
Predictions:
Will solubility increase or decrease with increasing temperature?
Will solubility of a gas increase or decrease with increasing pressure?
What is the solubility of O2 in grams per liter, given normal atmospheric conditions?
Henry’s Law Constants: when are they constant?
Which is greater, kH for O2 at 20 oC or O2 at 50 oC?
