    Study Notes

    General Inorganic Chemistry - Solutions - Expression of Concentration

    • Tasks: Students must learn to express solution concentration using molarity, molality, mole fraction, percent concentration, ppm, ppb, and proof.

    The Parable of Potatoes, Eggs, and Coffee Beans

    • A child was upset during quarantine and his mother took him to the kitchen.
    • She demonstrated how potatoes, eggs, and coffee beans reacted differently when put in boiling water.
      • Potatoes softened
      • Eggs hardened
      • Coffee changed the water.
    • The mother used the example to tell her son that different things respond differently to adversity and that they should adapt.

    Qualitative Measures of Concentration

    • Dilute vs Concentrated: Dilute solutions have less solute compared to concentrated solutions
    • Saturation:
      • Unsaturated: Contains less solute than it can dissolve.
      • Saturated: Contains the greatest amount that can dissolve at a given temperature.
      • Supersaturated: Contains more solute than it can dissolve at that temperature (unstable).

    Quantitative Measures of Concentration

    • Percent by Mass: Ratio of the mass of a solute to the total mass of the solution multiplied by 100%.
    • For example, 1.61% by mass of KCl in a solution containing 0.892 g KCl in 54.6 g of water
    • Percent by Volume: Ratio of the volume of a solute to the total volume of the solution multiplied by 100%.
    • For example, 11.5% of alcohol in a 0.750L bottle of wine is 0.0863L of ethanol.
    • Percent by Mass/Volume: The mass of a solute divided by the volume of solution and multiplied by 100%.
    • For example, 10g Sodium chloride in 150ml of solution equals 6.7% m/v

    Parts per Million (ppm) and Parts per Billion (ppb)

    • ppm: One part of solute per million parts of solution used for extremely dilute solutions. Formula: ppm = (mass of solute / mass of solution) x 10^6
    • ppb: One part of solute per billion parts of solution used for extremely dilute solutions. Formula: ppb = (mass of solute / mass of solution) x 10^9

    Molarity (M)

    • Molarity describes the moles of solute dissolved in one liter of solution. For example, if 42.23 g of NH4Cl is dissolved in 500.0 mL of water, the molarity would be 1.579 M.

    Molality (m)

    • Molality expresses the moles of solute dissolved in one kilogram of solvent. For example, if 32.0 grams of CaCl2 are dissolved in 271 grams of water, the molality would be 1.06 m of CaCl2.

    Mole Fraction

    • Mole fraction is calculated by dividing the moles of a component by the total number of moles of all components in the mixture.

    Proof

    • A measure of the ethanol content in alcoholic beverages. Calculated by doubling the volume percentage of ethanol.

    Non-Graded and Graded Assessments

    • The provided text also contains several examples and calculations related to concentration expressed using various units. These examples are part of non-graded and graded assessment questions to practice concepts learned.
