Solutions • Solutions are defined as homogenous phases produced by dissolving one or more substances in another substance. • Mixtures are not solutions o Salad dressing (oil and vinegar) is not a solution, no matter how much you shake it. o The mineral alkali feldspar (K, Na)Al. Si 3 O 8 is a solution (at high temperature). o A mixture of orthoclase (KAl. Si 3 O 8) and albite (Na. Al. Si 3 O 8) will never be a solution no matter how much you grind and shake it.

Ideal Solutions • Turns out this does not hold in the exact and is only approximately true for a limited number of solutions. • Such solutions are termed ideal solutions. Raoult’s Law expresses ideal behavior in solutions. • In an ideal solution, interactions between different species are the same as the interactions between molecules or atoms of the same species.

Henry’s Law • As we’ll see, most substances approach ideal behavior as their mole fraction approaches 1. • On the other end of the spectrum, most substances exhibit Henry’s Law behavior as their mole fractions approach 0 (Xi -> 0). • Henry’s Law is: P i = h i. X i o where hi is Henry’s Law ‘constant’. It can be (usually is) a function of T and P and the nature of the solution, but is independent of the concentration of i.

Chemical Potential • The chemical potential is defined as partial molar Gibbs Free Energy: • The chemical potential tells us how the Gibbs Free Energy will vary with the number of moles, ni, of component i holding temperature, pressure, and the number of moles of all other components constant. • For a pure substance, the chemical potential is equal to the molar Gibbs Free Energy (also the molar Helmholtz Free Energy).

• The total Gibbs free energy of a system will depend upon composition as well as on temperature and pressure. The Gibbs free energy change of a phase of variable composition is fully expressed as: • Now consider exchange of component i between two phases, α and βholding all else constant; then: • For a closed system: • At equilibrium (d. G = 0), then: In a system at equilibrium, the chemical potential of every component in a phase is equal to the chemical potential of that component in every other phase in which that component is present.

Interpreting Gibbs. Duhem • In a closed system at equilibrium, net changes in chemical potential will occur only as a result of changes in temperature or pressure. At constant temperature and pressure, there can be no net change in chemical potential at equilibrium: • This equation further tells us that the chemical potentials do not vary independently, but change in a related way.

Entropy changes of solution • What about entropy and free energy changes of ideal solutions? • Even in ideal solutions, there is an entropy change (increase) because we have increased the randomness of the system. • The entropy change of ideal solution is: o Note similarity to configurational entropy. o Note negative sign. How will entropy change? • The total entropy of an ideal solution is then:

Free Energy Change of Solution ∆Gmixing = ∆Hmixing - T∆Smixing • For an ideal solution, ∆Hmixing = 0 • And • Because the log term is always negative, ideal solutions have lower free energy than a mixture of their pure constituents and ∆G decreases with increasing T. This is why things are usually more soluble at higher T. • Total Free Energy of an ideal solution is:
