SolutionConcentration
What is different between the glasses of Kool-aid?
Solution concentration can be described generally
Dilute - reduced in strength, weak, watered down.
Concentrated – stronger, pure. Has less water.
What is the problem with just using dilute and concentrated as descriptions of the
solution concentration?
Is solution B dilute or concentrated?
The terms dilute and concentrated are relative.
Scientists need a more precise way of referring to the concentration of a solution.
Concentrated Dilute
Solution A Solution B Solution C
Solution concentration can be described specifically
Do you remember the “mole” from Stoichiometry?
What is a mole?
How might you use it to describe the concentration of a solution?
Concentration can be represented by…
•Molarity
•Molality
•Percent by Mass
MolarityThe ratio of the moles of solute to
the volume of solution in liters.
Molarity (M) =Moles of solute
Volume in Liters of solution
Used for most chemistry calculations of concentration
Molality
Molality = moles of solute per kg solvent
Molality (M) =Moles of solute
kilogram of Solvent
Used for chemistry when volume of solvent is not constant
Percent by Mass
Percent by Mass = mass of solute divided by mass of total solution
% by mass =Mass (g) of solute
Mass of Solvent + Mass of Solute
Used for food, medicine, household cleaners and chemicals
How to Calculate Dilutions
Using molarity to calculate dilutions is EASY. Moles stays the same Volume changes Molarity changes M1V1 = M2V2
Re-arrange to solve for the requested information
How to read Molarity
6.0 M NaClRead: “6 molar solution of NaCl”Can be abbreviated 6M solution You must be careful to label the molarity
with a capital M so that it is not confused with m for molality.
How to make a solution using molarity (6M NaCl)
(a) Add 6 moles NaCl to the volumetric flask. How would you measure that?
6moles NaCl 58.443 g NaCl
1 mole NaCl
= 351 g NaCl
How to make a solution using molarity (6M NaCl)
(b) Add dH2O to dissolve and mix the NaCl
(c) Fill the flask with dH2O until you reach the 1000mL line.
Types of Calculations with Molarity:
1. Finding concentration of a solution.2. Finding the mass of solute needed.3. Finding the volume of solution made.
Finding Concentration
Antifreeze is a solution of ethylene glycol, C2H6O2 in water. If 4.50 L of antifreeze contains 27.5 g of ethylene glycol, what is the concentration of the solution?
27.5 g C2H6O2
62.08 g C2H6O2
1 mol C2H6O2
4.5 L
= 0.0984 mol/L or
0.0984 M C2H6O2
Finding Mass
What mass of sodium carbonate, Na2CO3, is present in 50 ml of a 0.750M solution?
50 ml 1 L
1000 mL
0.750 mol
1 L 1 mol Na2CO3
105.99 g Na2CO3
= 3.97 g Na2CO3
Conversion Factor
Finding Volume
What volume of 1.50 mol/L HCl solution contains 10.0 g of hydrogen chloride?
10.0 g HCl 1 mol HCl
36.46 g HCl 1.50 mol
1 L
= 0.183 L or 183 mL
Conversion Factor
