Factors Affecting Solubility

Polar liquids tend to dissolve readily in polar solvents

Pairs of liquids that mix in all proportions are said to be


miscible, and liquids that do not mix are immiscible.

Solute- Solvent
Interactions Hydrogen bonding interactions between solute and
solvent may lead to high solubility

The number of carbon atoms in an alcohol affects its


solubility in water

Like dissolves like


Factors Affecting Solubility

The solubility of most solid solutes in water increases


as the temperature of the solution increases

solubility of gases in water decreases with increasing


Temperature Effects temperature

Solubility of a gas in a solvent is directly proportional


to the partial pressure of that gas above the solvent
Factors Affecting Solubility

The solubilities of solids and liquids are not


appreciably affected by pressure

Pressure Effects

The solubility of a gas in any solvent is increased as


the pressure of the gas over the solvent increases

7 In science class, Michalea was studying the vascular
system of plants. She cut the bottom off a stalk of
celery and then placed the celery in colored water.
She left the celery in the cup for 24 hours. When she
observed the celery, she noticed that there were
colored tubes in the celery stalk, which she knew was
the xylem tissue. She cut off a piece of the celery and
observed it under a dissecting microscope and drew
her observations.

In science class, Jackson learned that the underside of many
leaves contained structures called stomata. Water vapor and other
gases exit the plant through the stomata. Jackson wondered if the
leaves of a hibiscus plant or the leaves from an ivy plant had more
stomata. He used clear fingernail polish to paint a 2 cm square
area on the underside of each leaf. He then placed clear packing
tape on each painted area and lifted the tape and removed an
impression of the leaf. He placed the clear packing tape on
microscope slides and then observed the impressions and counted
the number of stomata on each leaf.

Robert was asked to determine how temperature affects
enzyme activity. Potatoes placed in hydrogen peroxide
were used as a source of the enzyme catalase. Robert
tested the potatoes under three different conditions:
potatoes at room temperature, potatoes that had been
placed in an ice bath, and potatoes that had been placed
in boiling water. The potatoes at room temperature
served as his control group. He counted the bubbles that
formed to determine enzyme activity.
