Solutions & Colligative Properties

Henry's Law

The solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas above the liquid.

p = K_H × x Pa Solutions & Colligative Properties

Hydration Energy

The energy released when one mole of gaseous ions is surrounded by water molecules to form a dilute aqueous solution.

ΔH_hyd ∝ z / r kJ/mol Solutions & Colligative Properties

Hypertonic Solution

A solution with a higher osmotic pressure than the one it is compared with, drawing water out of the more dilute side.

π_solution > π_cell atm Solutions & Colligative Properties

Hypotonic Solution

A solution with a lower osmotic pressure than the one it is compared with, so water flows into the more concentrated side.

π_solution < π_cell atm
