Properties exhibited by solutions that are dependent only on the number of particles dissolved in a given solvent, and are unaffected by the exact nature of the solute
Vapor pressure
Pressure exerted by the vapor being given off by a liquid at a given temperature
Vapor pressure is directly proportional to temperature
Raoult's Law
States that at constant temperature, the vapor pressure of the solvent over a solution is the product of the vapor pressure of the pure solvent, and the mole fraction of the solvent in a solution
Torr
Unit of pressure
Molality (m)
Equivalent amount of solute in moles/kg of solvent
Freezing Point Lowering (ΔTf)
The temperature at which a solution freezes is lower than the freezing point of a pure solvent
Calculating mass of solute using freezing point depression
1. Use the formula: Mass in grams of solute = (molar mass of solute)(ΔTf)(kg of solvent) / Kf
2. Substitute values and solve
Osmosis
The minimum external pressure that must be applied to a solution to prevent the diffusion of solvent from pure solvent into a solution
M
Molar Concentration / Molarity
R
Ideal Gas Constant (0.0821 L-atm/mol-K)
T
Absolute temperature or Temperature in Kelvin
Calculating Molarity
M = moles of solute / Liter of solution
Solute
The one that is dissolved
Solvent
The one that dissolves
Crystallization
A process in which the solute particles in the solution collide with each other and some of these particles get separated out of the solution
Solutions
Consist of a solute and a solvent
Exist in one phase
Particles in it are invisible to the naked eye
Do not scatter a light beam
Their components cannot be separated by means of simple mechanical filtration
Types of Solutions
Solid Solutions (solid or liquid solute + solid solvent)
Liquid Solutions (either solid, liquid, or gas is the solute + liquid solvent)
Gaseous Solutions (usually homogeneous mixtures of gases like air)
Solubility
Refers to the maximum quantity of solute that can dissolve in a given quantity of a solvent at a given temperature
Categories of Solutes
Highly soluble, Sparingly soluble, Insoluble

Aromatic hydrocarbons
6 carbons are in a closed ring with alternating double and single bonds
Called benzene
Can be substituted
Hydrocarbon Derivatives
Compounds containing carbon, hydrogen, and one or more other elements (N, O)
Functional Groups
Replace hydrogen atoms in a hydrocarbon and give the compound and their derivatives distinctive physical and chemical properties. Their names are derived from the hydrocarbon with the corresponding number of carbon atoms
Alcohol
Have an -OH group
Flammable, soluble
NOT bases (covalently bonded) and NOT electrolytes
Has the suffix "-ol"
Must also state the location of the -OH along the carbon chain (using lowest # location)
Alkyl Halides
HAVE ONE OF THE HALOGENS AS A BRANCHED GROUP (F, Cl, Br, I)
Alkyl Halides
1 - Bromoethane
1, 2 - dibromo ethane
Chloromethane
Ether
Look for -O- somewhere in the middle
Anesthetic, soluble
Name small chain, then the large chain and follow with suffix "-ether"
Ethers
Dimethyl ether
Methyl ethyl ether
Aldehyde
CHO group found at the end of the hydrocarbon chain
Soluble and reactive
Has the suffix "-al"
Ketone
CO group located on an interior carbon atom
Can NEVER be a terminal carbon, or it would be an aldehyde!
Has the suffix "-one"
Somewhat soluble, needs at least 3 carbons
Carboxylic Acids
Have a carboxyl group (-COOH) at the last carbon
Also known as carboxylic acids: weak acids/weak electrolytes because they generate H+ ions in solution
Has the suffix "-oic acid"
Ester
Contains COO connecting parent chain to branch
Smell nice! Found in perfumes, foods
Has the suffix -anoate
Amine
Nitrogen is present
Used in dyes, found in proteins, DNA
Has the suffix -amine
Amide
Contains
Used in dyes
Has the suffix -amide
Isomers
Have the same molecular formula but are rearranged in a different structure with different chemical and physical properties
At least 4 carbons must be present in a molecule to have isomers
Methane, ethane, and propane DO NOT have any isomers
Different Organic Reactions
Substitution
Addition
Elimination
Rearrangement
Polymerization
Addition (Chain Reaction) Polymerization: Several monomers combine to make the polymer
Condensation (Step Reaction) Polymerization: Creation of a polymer plus water as a product
