WHAT IS

A SOLUTI
ON?
A solute can have
different solubilities in
different solvents
Example:

 Oil cannot be dissolved in


water
 Nonpolar solvent such as
hexane and chloroform
can dissolve oil.
SOLUBI
It refers to the maximum
LITY
amount of solute that can
dissolve in a given
amount of time.

Smaller particles have more
edges and corners where
the solvent can be in
contact.

PRESSUR
E:
Changes in pressure have
little effect on the solubility
of solids and liquids, but
pressure strongly
influences the solubility of
gases.
Carbonated beverages are a good
example.

amounts of carbon
dioxide (CO2)
dissolved in water.
•Dissolved CO2

• The drinks are
bottled under a high
pressure of CO2 gas,
which forces larger
amounts of the gas
into solution.
•When the container is
opened, the partial
pressure of CO2 above
the liquid decreases.

As the pressure of the gas above the
liquid increases, the solubility of the
gas increases.
As the pressure of the gas decreases,
the solubility of the gas decreases.
the relationship is described by Henry’s
law, which states that at a given
temperature, the solubility (S) of a gas in
a liquid is directly proportional to the
pressure (P) of the gas above the liquid.
