The Solvation Process. Solvation is the process of surrounding solute particles with solvent particles to form a solution. Solvation in water is called hydration.

The Solvation Process • Solvation is the process of surrounding solute particles with solvent particles to form a solution. • Solvation in water is called hydration. • The attraction between dipoles of a water molecule and the ions of a crystal are greater than the attraction among ions of a crystal. Section 14-3
Solute A solute is the dissolved substance in a solution. Saltin salt water Sugarin soda drinks Carbon dioxide in soda drinks Solvent A solvent is the dissolving medium in a solution. Waterin salt water Waterin soda

The Solvation Process (cont.) • Sucrose molecules have several O–H bonds, which become sites for hydrogen bonding with water molecules. • Oil does not form a solution with water because there is little attraction between polar water molecules and nonpolar oil molecules. Section 14-3

The Solvation Process (cont.) • During solvation, the solute must separate into particles and move apart, which requires energy. • The overall energy change that occurs during solution formation is called the heat of solution. Section 14-3
Solubility Trends • The solubility of MOST solids increases with temperature. • The rate at which solids dissolve increases with increasing surface area of the solid. • The solubility of gases decreases with increases in temperature. • The solubility of gases increases with the pressure above the solution.
Therefore… Solids tend to dissolve best when: • Heated • Stirred • Ground into small particles Gases tend to dissolve best when: • The solution is cold • Pressure is high
Solubility (cont.) Henry’s lawstates that at a given temperature, the solubility (S) of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure (P). Section 14-3

Saturation of Solutions • A solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that may be dissolved under existing conditions is saturated. • A solution that contains less solute than a saturated solution under existing conditions is unsaturated. • A solution that contains more dissolved solute than a saturated solution under the same conditions is supersaturated.
