Study Notes
Concentration of Solutions
- Concentration refers to the amount of solute present in a given amount of solution.
- It can be expressed in various ways, including:
- Molarity (M)
- Molality (m)
- Normality (N)
- Percentage (%)
- Parts per million (ppm)
Normality (N)
- Normality is the number of equivalents of solute per liter of solution.
- It is often used to express the concentration of acids and bases.
- Normality is related to molarity by the following equation:
- N = n * M where n is the number of equivalents per mole of solute.
Percentage (%)
- Percentage concentration is the amount of solute present in a solution as a percentage of the total solution.
- It can be expressed as:
- % (w/w) = (mass of solute / mass of solution) * 100
- % (w/v) = (mass of solute / volume of solution) * 100
Molarity (M)
- Molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.
- It is defined as:
- M = moles of solute / liters of solution
Molality (m)
- Molality is the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
- It is defined as:
- m = moles of solute / kilograms of solvent
Henry's Law
- Henry's law states that the amount of a gas dissolved in a solution is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas above the solution.
- It is expressed mathematically as:
- C = k * P where C is the concentration of the gas, k is the Henry's law constant, and P is the pressure of the gas.
Raoult's Law
- Raoult's law states that the vapor pressure of a solution is directly proportional to the mole fraction of the solvent.
- It is expressed mathematically as:
- P = P° * X where P is the vapor pressure of the solution, P° is the vapor pressure of the pure solvent, and X is the mole fraction of the solvent.
Colligative Properties
- Colligative properties are properties of a solution that depend on the number of particles (molecules or ions) present, rather than their identity.
- Examples of colligative properties include:
- Boiling point elevation
- Freezing point depression
- Osmotic pressure
- Vapor pressure lowering
Concentration of Solutions
- Concentration is the amount of solute present in a given amount of solution.
- It can be expressed in various ways, including molarity, molality, normality, percentage, and parts per million.
Normality (N)
- Normality is the number of equivalents of solute per liter of solution.
- It is often used to express the concentration of acids and bases.
- Normality is related to molarity by the equation: N = n * M, where n is the number of equivalents per mole of solute.
Percentage (%)
- Percentage concentration is the amount of solute present in a solution as a percentage of the total solution.
- It can be expressed as % (w/w) = (mass of solute / mass of solution) * 100 or % (w/v) = (mass of solute / volume of solution) * 100.
Molarity (M)
- Molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.
- It is defined as: M = moles of solute / liters of solution.
Molality (m)
- Molality is the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
- It is defined as: m = moles of solute / kilograms of solvent.
