Study Notes

Molarity and Concentration

Molar concentration is also known as molarity.
The most commonly used unit for molarity is moles per liter (mol/L).
Molarity is often depicted as M (capital M).
In the molarity equation, the variable 'c' represents the concentration in moles per liter.
Since 2019, the Avogadro constant is defined as 6.02214076 x 10^23 particles (atoms or molecules).

Concentration Calculations

When a sodium carbonate solution has a formal concentration of c(Na2CO3) = 1 mol/L, the molar concentrations of Na+ and CO2−3 are 2 mol/L and 1 mol/L, respectively.
The conversion to mass concentration ρ i is given by ρi = M_i * c_i, where M_i is the molar mass of the substance.
The conversion to mole fraction $x_i$ is given by xi = c_i / Σc_j, where j represents all components.

Units and Notations

The SI prefix 'mega' (symbol M) denotes 10^6 in the context of molar concentration.
The coherent unit for molar concentration in the International System of Units (SI) is moles per liter (mol/L).

Other Concentration Units

In thermal engineering, the mass fraction of vapor in the steam is represented by x.
In alloys, especially those of noble metals, the mass fraction of the noble metal in the alloy is represented by the term "fineness".
The mass fraction of a substance within a mixture is represented by wi.

Relationships Between Concentrations

The mass fractions of the ingredients of a mixture are related to the total mass of the mixture by Σwi = 1.
In commercial contexts, the mass fraction expressed as percentage by mass is often called percentage composition.
The ratio of the mass fractions of components in a pure component mixing is expressed as wi / wj.
Another way of expressing the composition of a mixture in a dimensionless size apart from mass fraction is mole fraction.
The term "assay" refers to the ratio of the mass of an element to the total mass of a sample.
