Study Notes
Percent Concentration
- Percent concentration quantifies the amount of solute in a solution, often expressed in weight percent (% wt/wt).
- Weight percent (% wt/wt) indicates grams of solute per 100 grams of solution.
Percent by Mass
- Percent by mass formula:
% (wt/wt) = (mass of solute / mass of solution) * 100 - Mass of solution = Mass of solute + Mass of solvent.
Solution Concentration Description
- Solutions are categorized as:
- Dilute: Low solute proportion relative to solvent.
- Concentrated: High solute proportion relative to solvent.
Example Calculations
- To prepare a 10% (wt/wt) NaOH solution weighing 750 grams, determine the mass of solute and solvent based on the percentage formula.
- Example calculation for sodium nitrate concentration: If 7.5 g is dissolved in 85 ml of water, apply percent by mass formula for concentration.
Percent by Volume
- Percent by volume (%) is used when both solute and solvent are liquids, defined as the volume of solute per 100 volumes of solution.
- Formula for Percent by Volume:
% (vol/vol) = (volume of solute / volume of solution) * 100 - Volume of solution = Volume of solute + Volume of solvent.
Example Calculations for Volume
- A rubbing alcohol solution containing 70% (vol/vol) isopropyl alcohol in 600 mL holds a specific volume of isopropyl alcohol calculated via the volume percentage formula.
- For a 40% (vol/vol) ethylene glycol solution, calculate the volume of ethylene glycol needed to create five liters of solution using the volume formula.
Weight/Volume Percent
- Weight/Volume percent formula:
% (mass/volume) = (mass of solute / volume of solution) * 100 ---
Example Calculations for Weight/Volume
- Calculating weight/volume percent: Dissolve 5.0 grams of glucose in enough water to prepare 250 mL of solution.
- For a 50 mL of 12% by mass-volume solution, find the grams of solute contained using the weight/volume formula.
