Formulae | Quiz 2 Flashcards
Formula for molarity?
c = n/v where c is concentration in mol/L, n is # of moles, and v is volume in litres
Molarity is also known as
molar concentration
Practical applications of the molarity formula:
in soap, food industry, hot chocolate, iced tea, medicine, etc
Formula of mass-volume concentration:
c = m/v where c is concentration in g/L, m is mass of solute in g, and v is volume of solution in L
Liters can also be expressed in
dm^3
Mass-volume concentration can be used when
the solution has a solid solute and a liquid solvent
Formula for %(mass/volume) concentration:
mass of solute (in g) / volume of solution in mL all * 100%
Formula for %(mass/mass) concentration:
mass of solute (in g) / mass of solution (in g) all * 100
Formula for % volume/volume concentration:
volume of solute (in mL) / volume of solution (in mL) all * 100
Mass/mass concentration is used when
solutions are solid or liquid
Mass/mass concentration applications in real life include
IV, personal care, spinal fluid, CaCl2 and slush, drugs, toothpaste
Volume/volume concentration is used when
both chemicals are liquid
Volume/volume concentration applications in real life include
Diluting acids, alcohol
Formula for trace concentrations (ppm, ppb, ppt):
mass of solute/mass of solution all * 10^6/9/12/etc
Trace concentration is used to
find small amounts of things (in water, medication, etc.)
