Study Notes
Concentration Terms
- The term that refers to the amount of solute present in a given amount of solution is concentration.
Calculating Concentration
- If a student mistakenly uses volume instead of mass while calculating the mass percent, they may get a similar value to the incorrectly calculated mass percent using the concentration term of volume percentage.
Mole-Based Concentration
- The concentration term that involves expressing concentration in terms of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent is molality.
Molarity
- A solution with a molarity of 2 M and a volume of 0.5 L contains 1 mole of solute (moles = molarity x volume in liters).
Molality Calculation
- The molality of a solution that contains 20 g of NaCl dissolved in 200 g of water can be calculated by dividing the number of moles of NaCl by the mass of solvent in kg (molality = moles of solute / mass of solvent in kg).
Mole Fraction Calculation
- The mole fraction of ethylene glycol (C2H6O2) in a solution made by mixing 30 g of ethylene glycol with 70 g of water can be calculated by first finding the number of moles of each component, then dividing the number of moles of ethylene glycol by the total number of moles.
