expressing concentration of
solutions:
1.percent by mass,
2.mole fraction,
3.molarity,
4.molality,
5.percent by volume,
6.percent by mass, ppm

SOLUTIONS
• SOLUBLE SUBSTANCE
– This is a term used to describe a
substance that dissolves to a significant
extent in a solvent without stating how
much actually will dissolve.
• INSOLUBLE SUBSTANCE
– This is a term used to describe a
substance that does not dissolve to a
significant extent in a solvent.
Sugar has limited solubility in water
IMMISCIBLE
• Solution concentrations
express a quantitative
relationship about the
amount of solute
contained in a specific
amount of solution.
There are a number of ways to express
the relative amounts of solute and
solvent in a solution. It is sometimes
easier to measure the volume of a
solution rather than the mass of the
solution.
Percent Concentrations
Example 3:
What is the percent by volume concentration
of a solution in which 75.0 ml of ethanol is
diluted to a volume of 250.0 ml?
Example 4:
What volume of acetic acid is present in a
bottle containing 350.0 ml of a solution
which measures 5.00% concentration?
x = 0.05
350.0
x = 17.5 ml

Try solving this one…
g = M x L x molar mass
g = (5mol/L) (0.2L) (58.44g/mol)
g = 58.44 g
