Study Notes
Liquid-Liquid Solution
- A liquid-liquid solution is prepared by dissolving a solute (a substance found in a small amount) in a solvent (a substance present in the greatest amount).
- Example: Beer, which is 5% ethanol by volume.
Concentration of a Solution
- Concentration can be expressed quantitatively, which is informative and useful from a scientific point of view.
- Concentration is the ratio of the solute to the solvent in a solution.
Solute and Solvent
- Solute: the dissolved substance or the substance found in a small amount.
- Solvent: the substance in which solutes dissolve to make the mixture, or the substance present in the greatest amount.
Problems and Solutions
- To prepare a solution, you need to calculate the amount of solute and solvent required.
- Examples:
- Preparing a 10% orange juice solution from a 65% orange juice concentrate.
- Preparing a 52% saline solution with a weight of 230g from a 20% saline solution.
- Preparing a 14% saline solution with a final weight of 420kg using two saline solutions with concentrations of 50% and 10%.
- Preparing a 17% sugar solution with a volume of 300ml and a density of 1.263 using a sugar solution with a concentration of 25% and water.
