Colligative properties l Properties that depend on the TOTAL number of dissolved particles
Colligative properties l Properties that depend on the TOTAL number of dissolved particles l l Vapor pressure lowering Boiling point elevation Freezing point depression Osmotic pressure
Vapor pressure lowering l l Adding solute leads to more intermolecular attractions It becomes harder for solvent molecules to escape into the gas phase
Vapor pressure lowering l More solute lower vapor pressure than pure solvent l Raoult’s Law

Freezing Point Depression
Electrolytes vs. nonelectrolytes l Colligative properties depend on total number of dissolved particles
Electrolytes vs. nonelectrolytes l Colligative properties depend on total number of dissolved particles l l Non-electrolytes don’t dissociate Electrolytes DO dissociate into ions in solution
Van’t Hoff factor, i l l For non-electrolyte, i = 1 For electolytes, i = # of ions in formula (theoretical maximum)
Predict the van’t Hoff factor: l l Glucose, C 6 H 12 O 6 Na. Cl Al. Cl 3 Methanol, CH 3 OH
Ion pairing l l l One mole of Na. Cl does not yield two moles of ions Some ions will reassociate for a short time The actual van’t Hoff factor will be slightly lower than predicted
van’t hoff factors l More ion pairing occurs at higher concentrations
van’t hoff factors l More ion pairing occurs at higher concentrations
