Jul 19, 2022 at 6:24 comment added Arun Bhardwaj "so then you are out of equilibrium, and ice will melt and the temperature will decrease. " how the temperature will decrease??? suppose if we have ice and water at 100 degrees and I add ideal solute to the water ,the concetration of water would decrease and it will only decrease the no. of water molecules going back to the solid state but the no of solid molecules going to liquid state remains the same so equilibrium will shift forward but here also "the equilibrium constant" should remain the same if we think this way.... but it doesn't if we think of its formula why?
Jul 19, 2022 at 6:18 comment added Arun Bhardwaj "Because the ambient temperature in our lives is usually higher than the freezing point of water, and because our containers are not perfectly insulated, we keep transferring heat to the container." does that mean the equilibrium between ice and water exists at all temperatures?? so why do textbooks says and also the phase diagrams says that it exists "only" at freezing point
Jul 19, 2022 at 6:16 comment added Arun Bhardwaj can u please explain"dynamically" what's going on when u add "ideal solute" to the water ?? I understand that the concentration of water would decrease and more ice will melt....but if we will think how the activity of the molecules actually affected on adding solute things get difficult? like if i add an ideal solute to the liquid it will not change the bonding because its ideal so what I think is the no. of water molecules going back to sloid state should still remain the same??
