Study Notes
Concentration of Solutions
- W% (Mass percentage) is defined as the mass of solute in the solution per 100 g of the solution.
- W% = (Mass of solute in the solution × 100) / Total mass of the solution
Volume Percentage
- V% (Volume percentage) is defined as the volume of solute dissolved per 100 mL of solution.
- V% = (Volume of solute × 100) / Total volume of the solution
Mass by Volume Percentage
- w% (Mass by volume percentage) is defined as the mass of solute dissolved per 100 mL of solution.
- w% = (Mass of solute × 100) / Volume of solution
Parts Per Million (ppm)
- ppm is defined as the parts of a component per million (10^6) parts of the solution.
- ppm can be expressed in three ways: mass to mass, volume to volume, and mass to volume.
Mole Fraction
- Mole fraction is the ratio of the number of moles of a particular component to the total number of moles of all the components.
- χA = nA / (nA + nB), where nA is the number of moles of component A and nB is the number of moles of component B.
Key Formulae
- Mole fraction of a component = x1 = n1 / (n1 + n2)
- Molarity (M) = Number of moles of solute / Volume of solution in Litre
- Molality (m) = Number of moles of solute / Mass of solvent in kg
- Normality (N) = Number of gram equivalents of solute / Volume of solution in Litre
Relationships between Concentration Terms
- Relationship between Molarity (M) and Molality (m): dM / (1 - B) = M / 1000m
- Relationship between Mole fraction of solute (χB) and Molality (m): m = χB × 1000 / (1 - χB) × MA
Molarity and Molality
-
Molarity (M) is defined as the number of moles of solute per litre of solution.
-
M = WB × 1000 / MB × V
-
Unit of Molarity is mol L^-1 or M (molar).
-
Molality (m) is defined as the number of moles of solute per 1000 g or 1 kg of solvent.
-
m = WB × 1000 / MB × W
-
Unit of Molality is mol kg^-1 or molal (m).
