solubility of solid 2
Here's a simplified, CBSE Class 12 exam-oriented version of the provided paragraph, ideal for teaching in class, presentation slides, or student handouts.
🧪 Solubility of a Solid in a Liquid – Class 12 Chemistry
📌 1. Does Every Solid Dissolve in Every Liquid?
No!
-
Sodium chloride and sugar dissolve in water (polar solvent)
-
Naphthalene and anthracene do not dissolve in water
-
But naphthalene and anthracene dissolve in benzene (non-polar solvent)
💡 Key Rule: "Like Dissolves Like"
-
Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents
-
Non-polar solutes dissolve in non-polar solvents
-
✅ Solubility depends on similarity of intermolecular forces
🔁 Dissolution and Crystallisation
When a solid solute is added to a liquid:
-
Dissolution: Solute particles dissolve → concentration increases
-
Crystallisation: Some dissolved particles return to solid state
⚖️ Eventually:
Rate of dissolution = Rate of crystallisation
→ This is Dynamic Equilibrium
🧪 Equation:
Solute + Solvent ⇌ Solution
✅ Saturated and Unsaturated Solutions
Type of Solution | Meaning |
---|---|
Saturated | No more solute can dissolve at given T & P |
Unsaturated | More solute can still be dissolved |
📌 At saturation, the amount of solute dissolved is called its solubility.
🔥 Effect of Temperature on Solubility
-
Dissolution is an equilibrium process and follows Le Chatelier’s Principle.
If Dissolution is… | Heat Change | Solubility Effect |
---|---|---|
Endothermic (ΔH > 0) | Absorbs heat | Solubility ↑ with ↑ Temp |
Exothermic (ΔH < 0) | Releases heat | Solubility ↓ with ↑ Temp |
📌 Most solids show increased solubility with temperature.
🧯 Effect of Pressure on Solubility
-
❌ Pressure has almost no effect on solubility of solids in liquids
-
✅ Reason: Solids and liquids are incompressible
✍️ Exam Pointers (CBSE Focus):
-
Learn the “like dissolves like” rule
-
Use terms: dynamic equilibrium, saturation, solubility
-
Explain temperature effect with Le Chatelier’s Principle
-
Clearly write that pressure has no significant effect
