Chapter 6, Problem 8P

6-22 Answer true or false.

(a) Water is a good solvent for ionic compounds because water is a polar liquid.

(b) Small covalent compounds dissolve in water if they can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.

(c) The solubility of ionic compounds in water generally increases as temperature increases.

(d) The solubility of gases in liquids generally increases as temperature increases.

(e) Pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids in liquids.

(f) Pressure has a major effect on the solubility of gases in liquids.

(g) In general, the greater the pressure of a gas over water, the greater the solubility of the gas in water.

(h) Oxygen, O2, is insoluble in water.

If you compare the solubilities of the noble gases in water,you find that solubility increases from smallest atomicweight to largest, Ar < Kr < Xe. Which of the followingstatements is the best explanation? (a) The heavier the gas, the more it sinks to the bottom ofthe water and leaves room for more gas molecules at thetop of the water.(b) The heavier the gas, the more dispersion forces it has,and therefore the more attractive interactions it haswith water molecules.(c) The heavier the gas, the more likely it is to hydrogenbondwith water.(d) The heavier the gas, the more likely it is to make a saturatedsolution in water.
Indicate whether each statement is true or false:(a) If you compare the solubility of a gas in water at two different temperatures, you find the gas is more soluble at the lower temperature.(b) The solubility of most ionic solids in water decreases as the temperature of the solution increases.(c) The solubility of most gases in water decreases as the temperature increases because water is breaking its hydrogen bonding to the gas molecules as the temperature is raised.(d) Some ionic solids become less soluble in water as the temperature is raised.
6. @ (b) (c) Write the equation for the dissolution of sulphur dioxide in water. For this problem, assume that no other reaction other than dissolution takes place. Write the expression for the Henry's Law constant (KH) for this reaction. The average atmospheric sulphur dioxide concentration in Delhi, India is 13.4 µg/m³, which is equivalent to 5.11×10-9 atm. Calculate the concentration of sulphur dioxide dissolved in water in equilibrium with dry Delhi air at 25°C. Hint - you will need to look up the value of KH for sulphur dioxide.
