Molecules have properties that are often divided into:
1.) Additive properties 2.) Constitutive properties 3.) Colligative properties
Depend on the total contribution of the atoms in the molecule: molecular weight.
Additive properties
Depends of the arrangement of atoms in a molecule:
Constitutive properties
Example of constitutive properties (2)
1) Refraction of light 2.) Surface and interfacial properties
Depend on the number of particles in solution
Colligative properties
List 4 factos that increases colligative properties (4)
1.) Lowering of vapor pressure of solvent by solute 2.) Lowering of freezing point of solvent by solute 3.) Elevation of boiling point of solvent by solute 4.) Elevation of osmotic pressure of solvent by solute
The pressure of the vapor resulting from evaporatin of a liquid (or solid) above a sample of the liquid (or solid) in a closed container
Vapor pressure
Vapor pressure of water _____ as concentration increases
Decreases
States that the vapor pressure (p) of a solvent equals the vapor pressure of the pure solvent (p10) times the mole fraction of the solvent in solution (x1)
Raoult’s law
Equation for Raoult's law
P = p10x1
Defined as the temperature at which the vapor pressure of
the liquid becomes equal to the external atmospheric pressure (760 mm
Hg or 760 torr)
Boiling point
Equation for boiling point elevation
ΔTb = Kbm
What does Kb stand for in equation for boiling point elevation
The ebullioscopic constant or the molal boiling point elevation
constant (Kb has a characteristic value for each solvent)
The boiling point of water ______ as the concentration of sucrose increases
Increases
___________ of a compound is defined as the temperature at which the solid and liquid phases coexist under an external pressure of 1 atm (760 mm Hg or 760 torr).
The normal freezing point
