Objective/s:
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to :
1.) define colligative property and describe the
colligative properties of solutions.
2.) differentiate the colligative properties of electrolyte
and nonelectrolyte solutions.
3.) solve problems related to the colligative properties of
solutions.
Colligative Properties
Vapor pressure
is the pressure exerted by the vapor above the
liquid. Solution also exert vapor pressure.
Vapor pressure lowering
is due to the presence of nonvolatile solute is
summarized in Raoult's Law.
Raoult's Law
• Francois - Marie Raoult (1830-1901), a French
chemist and physicist. He developed the
Raoult's Law, which states that the vapor
pressure of a solution, PA, is equal to the
mole fraction of the solvent, XB, times the
vapor pressure of the pure solvent,PAo.
PA = XB PA o
• the mole fraction of a solvent,XB, plus the mole fraction of a
solute,XA, is always equal to 1, then
XB = 1 - XA. Rewriting Raoult's Law, we have
PA = (1 - XA) PAo
Simplifying the equation,
PA = PAo - XA PAo
Rearranging terms,
PAo - PA = XA PAo
• the quantity of PAo - PA or P is the vapor pressure
depression of the solution of a non volatile solute, so
substituting P in the equation gives:
P = X A P Ao
Sample Problem:
= (0.99)(28.3 mm Hg)
= 28.02 mm Hg
Cont.
P = PAo - Psol'n
= 28.3 mm Hg – 28.02 mm Hg
= 0.28 mm Hg
Exercise:
T= Kbm
where Kb is the molal boiling point elevation
constant, and m is the molal concentration of the
solution.

• Osmosis - is the
movement of a solvent
from one compartment
to another through a
semipermeable
membrane, toward the
higher concentration of
solute.
Osmosis
π V = ŋ RT (similar to PV = nRT)
π = n of solute RT
V of sol'n
π = MRT
Formula;
π = MRT
where π stands for osmotic pressure, expressed in atm.;
M is the molar concentration of the solution; R is the
universal gas constant (0.08206 L.atm/mol.K) ; and T is the
absolute temperature.
Sample Problem:
Solution:
1. Solve for Molarity, M
M = moles of Solute/ Liter of sol'n
2.0 g x 1 mol = 0.0058 mol
342 g
100 ml x 1L = 0.1 L
1000ml
M = 0.0058 mol
0.100 L
M = 0.058 mol/L
Formula: π = MRT
π = 1.44 atm
Exercise:
What is the normal boiling point of seawater, which is about 3.5% (by
mass) dissolved in solids? Note that almost all of the dissolved solids
are NaCl. Kb of water is 0.52 oC/m
3.5% by mass means 3.5 grams of solids per 100 grams of solution.
• Calculating the moles of NaCl
3.5 g x 1 mol = 0.0598 mol
58.5g
• Calculate the molality of NaCl:
m = 0.0598 mol = 0.62m
0.0965 kg
• Use the boiling point elevation with van't hoff factor,i,
which is equal to 2 since NaCl dissociates into two ions.
ΔTb= iKbm
ΔTb= (2)(0.52 oC/m)(0.62m)
ΔTb= 0.64 oC
