Solution
A solution is a homogeneous mixture of a solute dissolved in a
solvent.
In a soln, the subs that is present in large proportion is termed as
solvent.
Component that is present in small proportion is known as solute.
Based on proportion of solute present insolvent, solns are
classified as Dilute or Concentrated.
E.g. Solution of salt/sugar (Solute) in water (solvent).

Solubility
Solubility is defined in quantitative terms as the conc of solute in a
saturated soln at a certain temp.
In qualitative terms, it may be defined as spontaneous interaction
of two or more subs to form a homogeneous molecular dispersion.

Solution
A saturated soln is one which has reached its equilibrium
solubility at definite temp.
An unsaturated or subsaturated soln is one containing dissolved
solute in a conc below that necessary for complete saturation at a
definite temp. (i.e. not reached its equilibrium solubility)
A supersaturated soln is one that contains more of the dissolved
solute than it would normally contain at definite temp. (i.e.equilibrium solubility has been temporarily exceeded)

At saturation the system is at equilibrium where the rate of dissolution is
equal to rate of crystallization.
the blue "molecules" escape into solution from the ordered crystal. At the
same time, molecules are coming out of solution and depositing on the
solid.
Since this is a continual process and the concentrations do not change, it
is called dynamic equilibrium.

Solubility of Gases in Liquids
Solubility of gas in liquid is the conc of dissolved gas when it is in
equilibrium with some of the pure gas above the solution.
The solubility depends on the:
Pressure
Temperature
Presence of salts
Chemical Reaction
13
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
14/55
Effect of Pressure
The pressure of gas above the soln is an imp consideration in
gaseous solns becoz it changes the solubility of dissolved gas in
eqm with it.
The effect of the pressure on the solubility of a gas in liquid is
expressed by Henrys Law.
The law is named after William Henry (17741836), English
chemist who first reported the relationship.
14
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
15/55
Henrys Law states that, in a very dilute soln at constant temp, the
conc of dissolved gas is proportional to the partial pressure of the
gas above the soln at eqm.
(provided no chemical reaction takes place b/w soln & gas).
At P2, more gas dissolves into the15
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
16/55
The partial pressure of the gas is obtained by subtracting the vapor
pressure of solvent from total pressure above soln.
If C is conc of dissolved gas in g/litre of solvent
p is partial pressure in ml of undissolved gas above soln,
Henrys relationship can be written as:
C = p
where = inverse ofHenrys law constant. Also termed as Solubility
coefficient.

gn cance o enry s aw o ePharmacist
Solubility of a gas increases directly with the pressure on the gas,
& conversely, solubility of gas decreases, so that the gas escapes
with violence when the pressure above the solution is released.
This phenomenon is commonly recognized in effervescent
solutions when the stopper of the container is removed.

Henrys Law & Soft Drinks
Soft drinks contain carbonated water
water with dissolved carbon dioxide gas.
Drinks are bottled with CO2 pressure
greater than 1 atm.
When the bottle is opened, pressure of
CO2 decreases & solubility of CO2 also
decreases, according to Henrys Law.
Therefore, bubbles of CO2 escape from
solution.
18
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
19/55
Limitations of Henrys law
Law applies closely to gases with nearly ideal behavior.
Law applies at moderate temperature and pressure.
Law applies if the solubility of gas in solvent is low.
Law applies if the gas doesnt react with the solvent to form a newspecies. Thus ammonia (or HCl) which reacts with water does not
obey Henrys law.
NH3 + H2O NH4+ + OH-
Law applies if the gas doesnt associate or dissociate on dissolving
in the solvent.
19
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
20/55
Effect of Temperature
As the temp increases, solubility of most gases decreases, owing to
greater tendency of gas to expand.
Pharmacist must be careful in opening containers of gaseous
solutions in warm climates & other conds of elevated temp.
A vessel containing a gaseous solution or a liquid with a high
vapor pressure, such as ethyl nitrate, ammonia soln, liq bromine or
chlorine water, should be immersed in ice or cold water for some
time to reduce the temp and pressure of gas before opening the
container.

Effect of Temperature
21
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
22/55
Applications
Dissolved gases are removed by heating the soln.
Distilled water is maintained at 80C in order to make it
convenient for parenteral use, becoz gases cannot dissolve in water
at that temp.
Dissolved air influences boiling ofliqs.

Salting Out
Gases are often liberated from solutions in which they are dissolved by the
introduction of an electrolyte such as NaCl and sometimes by a non-electrolyte
such as sucrose.
This phenomenon is known as salting-out.
This effect is of great indirect importance to stabilize aqueous solns of Vit A.
High sugar conc decreases solubility of oxygen so that subs liable to oxidation
are better protected.
Salting out effect may be demonstrated by adding a small amount of salt to a
carbonated solution.
The resultant escape of gas is due to the attraction of the salt ions or the highly
polar non electrolyte for the water molecules, which reduces the density of the
aqueous environment adjacent to the gas molecules.23
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
24/55
Effect of Chemical Reaction
Henry's law applies strictly to gases
which are only slightly soluble in solution &
which do not react in any way in the solvent
Gases such as hydrogen chloride, ammonia and CO2 show deviations as
a result of chemical reaction between the gas and solvent, usually with a
resultant increase in solubility.
Accordingly, hydrogen chloride is about 10,000 times more soluble in
water than is oxygen.
Applications: These principles are used for prep of reagents s.a. conc
solns namely HCl, H2SO4 & HNO3.

Solubility Calculations
Solubility of a gas in liq can be expressed either by inverse Henrys Law
constant , or Bunsen absorption or Ostwalds solubility coefficient, .
Bunsen coefficient is defined as the vol of gas in liters (reduced to std conds of
0C & 760mm Hg pressure) that dissolves in 1 liter of solvent under a partial
pressure of 1 atm of gas at definite temp:
Vgas = Vol of gas at STP dissolved in as Volsoln of soln at a partial gas pressure p
Henrys law constant k can be represented as:

Applications of Solubility of Gases in Liquids Preparation of reagents
E.g. HCl, H2SO4, HNO3 & Liq ammonia.
Preparation of carbonated beverages
Solubility of oxygen in blood Major respiratory function of lungs is to
add O2 to blood & remove CO2 from it.
Solubility of O2 depends on conc of Hb.
Transportation of anesthetic gas through blood
Oil solubility of anesthetic gasesAnesthetic property of gas & its oil
solubility is imp.
Anesthetic gas with high oil solubility is effective at low alveolar conc &
has high potency.26

Solubility of Liquids in Liquids
The solutions of liquids in liquids may be divided into 3 classes:
Liquids that are Completely miscible
E.g. Alcohol and water
Liquids that are Partially miscible
E.g. Ether and water
Liquids that are Practically immiscible
E.g. Benzene and water
27
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
28/55
It is defined as the one in which there is no change in the properties of
components other than dilution, when they are mixed to form a soln.
Heat is neither absorbed nor evolved during mixing.
Final vol of soln represents an additive property of individual constituents.
There is no shrinkage or expansion when liqs are mixed.
Examples:
Liquid mixture
Methanol-ethanol
Benzene-toluene
n-hexane & n-heptane
28
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
29/55
These liqs have similar properties, i.e. attractive forces are in complete
uniformity.
This means, forces b/w unlike molecules are of same type as those presentb/w like molecules.
Ideal soln theory provides a model system to which real or non-ideal solns
can be compared.
They can be characterized by physicochemical property of a liq, namely
vapor pressure.
29

VP of a soln serves as a quantitative expression of escaping tendency.
Raoults law states that Partial vapor pressure of each volatile constituent is
equal to the vapor pressure of the pure constituent multiplied by its mole
fraction in the solution, at a given temperature
Consider a mixture of miscible liquids A and B
Let Partial VP exerted by liq A = pA (kPa)
Let Partial VP exerted by liq B = pB
Let VP exerted by pure liq A= pA0
Let VP exerted by pure liq B= pB0
Let mole fraction concentration of A in liq = XA
Let mole fraction concentration of B in liq = XB30
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
31/55
As per Raoults law:
pA = pA0
XA ----------------------(1)
pB = pB0 XB ----------------------(2)
When 2 liqs are mixed, the VP of each one is reduced by the presence of other
by the extent of dilution of each phase.
Ideal solns are the ones that obey Raoults law.
Raoults law is obeyed by few solns having similar structures.
E.g. Benzene & Toluene
n-hexane & n-heptane
Ethyl bromide & Ethyl iodide
The individual components do not have interaction of any kind or complete
uniformity of attractive forces is observed.31
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3

It states that, The total vapor pressure exerted by a mixture of
ideal gases may be considered as sum of the partial vapor
pressure exerted by each gas, if alone were present & occupied
the total vol.
Total vapor pressure = Partial VP of A + Partial VP of B
P = pA + pB--------------------------------(3)
P = (pA0 XA) + (pB
0 XB)
These properties are additive.
32
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
33/55
In an ideal soln, when liq A is mixed with liq B, the VP of A is reduced by
dilution with B in a manner depending on mole fractions of A & B present in
final soln.
This will diminish the escaping tendency of each constituent, leading to a
reduction in the rate of escape of molecules of A & B from the surface of the
liq.
If additional volatile components are present in soln, each will produce a
partial pressure above the soln, which can be calculated from Raoults law.
The total pressure is the sum of partial pressures of all constituents.

Applicable only to mixtures in which the components are very similar
chemically and the two components do not interact in any way.
Works only for ideal solutions.
Raoult's Law only works for solutes which don't change their nature when
they dissolve. For example, they mustn't ionize or associate.
36
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
37/55
Ideality in solns presupposes complete uniformity of attractive forces.
Many examples of soln pairs are known, in which, cohesive attraction of A
for A exceeds the adhesive attraction existing b/w A & B.
Similarly, attractive forces b/w A & B may be greater than those b/w A & A
or B & B.
This may occur even though liqs are miscible in all proportions.
Such mixtures are real or non-ideal; i.e. they do not adhere to Raoults law
throughout the entire range of composition.
Two types of deviations from Raoults law are recognized.
Deviations may be observed if solute-solute, solute-solvent & solvent-
solvent interactions are unequal.
37
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
38/55
In non-ideal solns, the Raoults law is modified by replacing the term
concentrationby a term effectiveconcentration indicating activity.
Thus eq. can be modified as
pA = pA0 aA
pB = pB0 aB
Where aA
& aB
are activities of components A & B, respectively.
In case of ideal soln: a = X
In case of non-ideal soln: a X
38
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
39/55
When the interaction b/w A & B molecules is less than that b/w molecules of
pure constituents, the presence of B molecules reduces the interaction of A
molecules, & A molecules correspondingly reduce B-B interaction.
Accordingly, dissimilarity of polarities or internal pressures of constituents
result in greater escaping tendency of both A & B molecules.
The partial VP of constituents is greater than that expected from Raoults law
& the system is said to exhibit positive deviation.
The total VP shows a maximum at one particular composition.
E.g. Benzene & ethyl alcohol; Carbon disulfide & acetone; Chloroform &
Ethyl alcohol.

They are known as maximum VP & minimum boiling point solutions
Occurs when the components differ in their polarity, length of hydrocarbon
chain and degree of association.
40
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
41/55
When adhesive attractions b/w molecules of different species exceed the
cohesive attractions b/w like molecules, the VP of the soln is less than that
expected from Raoults ideal soln law, & negative deviation occurs.
The total VP curve shows a minimum.
E.g. Chloroform & acetone; Pyridine & acetic acid; Water & nitric acid.
Chloroform & acetone manifest an attraction for one another through
formation of hydrogen bond, thus reducing the escaping tendency of each
constituent.

between components.

Raoults law does not apply over the entire conc range in non-ideal soln.
It describes the behavior of either component of a real liq pair only when the
subs is present in high conc & thus is considered to be solvent.
Raoults law may be expressed as:
psolvent = psolvent0 Xsolvent
This situation is valid for solvent of nonideal soln & cannot hold for
component in low conc, i.e. solute.
This is clear when we observe the curves in phase diagram.
The actual VP curve of a component approaches ideal curve defined by
Raoults law as soln composition approaches pure component.
43
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
44/55
VP curve for both components as solutes is observed to lie below the VP of
an ideal mixture.
The molecules of solute, being in relatively small no. in 2 regions of diagram,
are completely surrounded by molecules of solvent & so reside in uniform
environment.
Thus, Partial pressure or escaping tendency of a component at low conc is
proportional to its mole fraction, but its proportionality constant is not equal to
VP of pure subs.
Thus VP-comp relationship of solute cannot be expressed by Raoults law, but
by an eq known as Henrys law as:
psolute = ksoluteXsolvent
Where k < p
44
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
45/55
Henrys law applies to solute & Raoults law applies to dilute solns of real liq
pairs.
Raoults law also applies over entire conc range when both constituents are
sufficiently similar to form an ideal soln.
When partial VP of both constituents is directly proportional to mole fractions
over entire range, the soln is said to be ideal; Henrys law becomes identical
with Raoults law & k becomes equal to p.
45

Relationship b/w VP & composition of binary liq phases is the underlying
principle in distillation.
Depends on relative volatilities of the components of the liquid mixture.
In case of miscible liqs, instead of plotting VP v/s comp; it is more useful to
plot boiling point of various mixtures, determined at atmospheric pressure,
against comp.
Higher the VP of a liq, the more volatile it is & lower the BP.
Since the vapor of a binary mixture is always richer in more volatile
constituent, the process of distillation can be used to separate more volatile
from less volatile constituent.

Simple distillation Separating a volatile liquid from non volatile component of the mixture.
A process of converting a single constituent from a liquid into its vapors
and then condensing the vapors at other place.
Based on the difference between the volatility of two components.
Examples:
1. Simple distillation for preparation of distilled water and Water for injection.
2. Separation of Non volatile solids from volatile liquids.

Fractional Distillation/ Rectification It is a process in which vaporization of liq mixture gives a mixture of constituents
from which desired one is separated in pure form.
Used to separate miscible volatile liquids with close boiling points.
It is a mass transfer process involving counter current diffusion of components at
each equilibrium stage.
A fractionating column introduced between still & condenser.
Partial condensation of vapor is allowed to occur in a fractionating column
through which the vapor must pass before reaching the condenser.
In the column, ascending vapor from the still is allowed to come in contact with
the condensing vapor returning to the still.
This results in enrichment of vapor with more volatile component.49
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
50/55
By condensing the vapor & reheating the liq repeatedly, eqm b/w liq & vapor is
set up at each stage, which ultimately results in the separation of more volatile
component.
Condensate can be re-circulated to achieve further separation.
It is a mass transfer process involving counter current diffusion of components at
each equilibrium stage.

Consider a mixture of high boiling liq A & low boiling liq B
7/30/2019 Solubility Lecture 1, 2 & 3
51/55
Consider a mixture of high boiling liq A & low boiling liq B.
A mixture of these subs having comp a is distilled at boiling point b.
Comp of vapor v1 in eqm with liq at this temp is c; which is also the comp of
distillate when it is condensed.
Vapor is thus richer in B than the liq from which it was distilled.
If a fractionating column is used, A & B can be completely separated.
The vapor rising in the column is met by condensed vapor or downward-flowing
liq.
As the rising vapor is cooled by contact with the liq, some of the lower-boiling
fraction condenses, & the vapor contains more of the volatile component than itdid when it left the retort.
Thus, as the vapor proceeds up the fractionating column, it becomes progressively
richer in more volatile component B, & the liq returning to distilling retort
becomes richer in less volatile component A.51

Fractional distillation is suitable for a system when the BP of the mixture is always
intermediate b/w those of pure components.
There is neither a maximum or minimum in vapor composition curves.
These systems are known as Zeotropic mixtures.
E.g. Benzene-Toluene;
Carbon tetrachloride-Cyclohexane &
Water-Methanol
Application: Fractional distillation is used for separation of miscible liquids.
Disadvantage: It cannot be used to separate miscible liquids, which form
Azeotropic mixtures.
