Concentrations of Solutions
What are the components of a Solution? Solute and Solvent
Do the components in a solution have differences?
Concentration of Solutions Refers to amount of solute dissolved in a unit amount of solvent or of solution. Expressed in: -Percent Composition (by mass or volume) -Molarity -Molality -Mole Fraction
Percent Composition Percent by Mass % by mass = Mass of solute X 100 Mass of solution Percent by Volume % by volume = Volume of solute X 100 Volume of solution Where: Mass/Vol. of sol’n = mass/vol. of solute + mass/vol. of solvent
1. What is the mass percentage of a solution made by dissolving 4.0 g NaCl in g of water? % by Mass = Mass of solute X 100 Mass of solution = 4.0 g NaCl X g = X 100 = %
2. A medical solution used is 0.9 % by mass of NaCl. How many grams of NaCl are present in g of the solution? % by Mass = Mass of solute X 100 Mass of solution 0.9= (?) g NaCl X g of solution = 0.9 g of NaCl
3. Dimercaprol, a compound used as an antidote for mercury and arsenic poisoning, is prepared by mixing mg of dimercaprol with mg of peanut oil. What is the percent by mass of dimecaprol in this solution? % by Mass = Mass of solute X 100 Mass of solution = 100mg Dimercaprol X mg Dimeracprol mg peanut oil = 100mg X mg Solution %= 12.5
4. What is the mass percent of NaCl in a solution that is made by dissolving 12.0 g of NaCl in 60.0 g of H 2 O? % by Mass = Mass of solute X 100 Mass of solution = 12.0 g NaCl X g NaCl g H 2 O = 12.0 g NaCl X g Solution %= X 100 %= 16.6
5. What is the volume of alcohol in 500 mL of wine which contains 12% alcohol by volume? What is its proof number? % by Mass = Volume of solute X 100 Vol. of solute + Vol. of solvent 12= (?) volume of alcohol X mL wine 12= (?) volume of alcohol X mL wine 6000mL = [(?) volume of alcohol] mL= volume of alcohol
6. A bottle of Lambanog is 80 proof. What is the percent by volume of alcohol in this bottle of Lambanog? Degree proof is twice the percent by volume. Therefore: an 80 proof alcohol contains 40% by volume of alcohol Thus: in every 100mL has 40mL of alcohol and 60mL water
