Welcome, candidates in Ghana, to our detailed course material on the topic of Solutions in Chemistry. This topic delves into the essential aspects of preparing solutions from liquid solutes, determining their concentration through various parameters, and understanding the significance of different types of solution standards.
Preparation of Solutions from Liquid Solutes:
One of the primary objectives of this course material is to guide you through the systematic steps involved in preparing solutions from liquid solutes. This process involves accurately measuring the quantity of the solute and solvent to achieve the desired concentration. Understanding the intricacies of this preparation method is crucial in various chemical experiments and analyses.
Determination of Concentration:
Another fundamental aspect of this course material is the determination of the concentration of liquid solutes. Through parameters such as density, weight/volume (w/v), weight/weight (w/w), specific gravity, relative molecular mass, molar mass, and percentage purity, you will learn how to calculate the concentration of a solution accurately. These calculations are essential in ensuring the effectiveness of the solution in different chemical reactions and applications.
Types of Standards:
In the study of solutions, it is crucial to differentiate between primary standard, secondary standard, and standardized solutions. Each type plays a specific role in analytical chemistry and quality control processes. Primary standards are highly pure compounds used for precise titrimetric analyses, while secondary standards are standardized against primary standards. Standardized solutions are solutions of known concentrations employed in various laboratory procedures.
Practical Applications:
Throughout this course material, you will also gain insights into practical scenarios where the knowledge of solution preparation and standards is applied. By understanding the method of dilution and its significance in adjusting solution concentrations, you will be equipped to handle real-world chemical experiments and laboratory tasks effectively.
Embracing the details within this course material will not only enhance your understanding of solutions in chemistry but also prepare you for intricate chemical analyses and experiments. Let's delve into the world of solutions and unlock the mysteries they hold.

The heat of solution refers to the overall energy change that occurs when a solute dissolves in a solvent. This process involves breaking and making of intermolecular forces, and it can be broken down into two main steps that are each accompanied by heat change. The energies involved in these steps are:
Lattice energy: This is the energy required to break the bonds between the ions in the solid crystal lattice of the solute. Breaking these bonds requires energy, and this step is usually endothermic, meaning it absorbs heat from the surroundings. The more energy needed to break the lattice, the higher the lattice energy.
Hydration energy: Once the lattice is broken, the ions are surrounded by solvent molecules, typically water, in a process known as hydration. The energy released when the solvent molecules interact with and stabilize the ions is called the hydration energy. This step is usually exothermic, meaning it releases heat into the surroundings.
In conclusion, the two energies involved in the heat of solution are lattice energy and hydration energy. The balance between these two energies determines whether the overall process of dissolving a solute in a solvent is endothermic or exothermic.

(a) If you were provided with anhydrous Na\(_2\)CO\(_3\), spatula and stirrer;
(i) list three other materials you would require to prepare a standard solution of Na\(_2\)CO\(_3\)
(ii) state what you would observe on adding diluted H\(_2\)SO\(_4\) to a portion of the Na\(_2\)CO\(_3\)
(b)(i) Describe briefly one chemical test you would perform to distinguish between zinc ions and aluminium ions in solution.
(ii) Mention one laboratory reagent you would use to;
I. produce ammonia from (NH\(_4\))\(_2\)SO\(_4\)
II. differentiate between precipitates of AgCl and Agl
lll. dehydrate ethanol
(c) Give the reason for each of the following laboratory practices
(i) Aqueous solutions of FeSO\(_4\) are freshly prepared when required for use.
(ii) The first jar of hydrogen collected during its preparation is discarded

(a) Standard solution of Na2CO3
(i) Three other materials required: a chemical (weighing) balance, a volumetric (standard) flask, and a wash bottle of distilled water (a funnel and a beaker may also be used).
(ii) On adding dilute H2SO4 to the Na2CO3: brisk effervescence occurs and a colourless, odourless gas (CO2) is evolved which turns lime water milky.
\[ Na_2CO_3 + H_2SO_4 \to Na_2SO_4 + H_2O + CO_2 \]
(b)(i) Distinguishing Zn2+ from Al3+
Add aqueous ammonia dropwise then in excess to each solution. Both give a white gelatinous precipitate; with Zn2+ the precipitate dissolves in excess ammonia (forming a colourless complex), whereas with Al3+ the precipitate is insoluble in excess ammonia. This distinguishes them.
(ii) Laboratory reagents:
- I. Produce NH3 from (NH4)2SO4: warm with sodium hydroxide (or calcium hydroxide).
- II. Differentiate AgCl from AgI: aqueous ammonia - AgCl dissolves, AgI does not.
- III. Dehydrate ethanol: concentrated sulphuric acid (or hot aluminium oxide).
(c) Reasons
(i) FeSO4 solutions are freshly prepared because the Fe2+ ions are readily oxidised by air (oxygen) to Fe3+, so a fresh solution is needed to keep the iron as pure Fe2+.
(ii) The first jar of hydrogen is discarded because it is mixed with the air already in the apparatus, forming an explosive mixture; discarding it ensures the hydrogen collected afterwards is pure and safe.
