Questions and Answers

Define molality and how is it calculated?

Molality is the number of moles of solute dissolved in 1000 g of solvent. It is calculated as molality = (Number of moles of solute) / (Weight of solvent in kg).

What is the difference between molality and molarity?

Molality is the number of moles of solute per 1000 g of solvent, while molarity is the number of moles of solute per litre of solution.

How is a decimolar solution different from a normal solution?

A decimolar solution contains 1/10th of a mole of solute per 1000 g of solvent, while a normal solution contains 1 equivalent weight of solute per litre of solution.

What is normality and how is it calculated?

<p>Normality is the strength of solute in grams per litre. It is calculated as Normality = (Number of gram equivalent weight) / (Volume in litres).</p> Signup and view all the answers

Study Notes

Concentration of Solutions

  • Molality: The number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent, denoted by m and calculated as moles of solute per kilogram of solvent (m = moles of solute / mass of solvent in kg).
  • Molarity vs Molality: Molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution, whereas molality is the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
  • Decimolar Solution: A solution with a molarity of 0.1 M (moles per liter).

Normality

  • Normality: The number of equivalents of solute per liter of solution, where equivalent is the amount of substance that reacts with one mole of hydrogen ions (H+).
  • Calculation of Normality: Normality is calculated as the number of equivalents of solute divided by the volume of the solution in liters.

Mole Fraction

  • Mole Fraction of a Solute: The ratio of the number of moles of solute to the total number of moles in the solution, denoted by x (mole fraction = moles of solute / total moles).
  • Mole Fraction Formula: x = (moles of solute) / (moles of solute + moles of solvent).
  • Calculating Mole Fraction of a Solute: Calculate the number of moles of solute and solvent, then substitute into the formula.

Molarity

  • Molarity: The number of moles of solute per liter of solution, denoted by M (M = moles of solute / volume of solution in liters).
  • Molarity Calculation: M = moles of solute / volume of solution in liters.
  • Molar Solution: A solution with a molarity of 1 M (one mole of solute per liter of solution).

HCl Solution

  • Molarity of HCl Solution: Calculate the number of moles of HCl, then divide by the volume of the solution in liters.
  • Labeled as M/2 HCl: The solution is diluted to half the original concentration.

Conversions

  • Converting Grams to Molarity: Calculate the number of moles from the mass of solute, then divide by the volume of the solution in liters.
  • Mole Fraction of Solvent: Calculate the number of moles of solvent and substitute into the mole fraction formula.

Rectified Spirit

  • Mole Fraction of Ethanol: Calculate the number of moles of ethanol and water, then substitute into the mole fraction formula.
  • Mole Fraction of Water: Calculate the number of moles of water and ethanol, then substitute into the mole fraction formula.
  • Relationship between Mole Fraction and Weight Percentage: The mole fraction of a component in a solution is proportional to its weight percentage.
