Identify how many significant figures (SF) are there in 3435.
4 SF
Expressed as equal parts per hundred or the amount of solute per 100 total units of solution
Percent solution
______ is the number of grams of solute per 100g of solution
Weight per weight (%w/w)
Gives the milliliters of solute in 100mL of solution
Volume per volume (%v/v)
Number of grams of solute in 100mL 9f solution
Weight per volume (%w/v)
Most commonly used percent solution in the clin. Laboratory
Weight per volume (%w/v)
True/False: always add water to acid!
False, it should be the other way around.
Expressed as the number of equivalent weights per liter (Eq/L)
Normality
_______ is always equal to or greater than the molarity of the compound
Normality
Routinely expressed in units of moles per liter (mol/L)
Molarity
Used in measuring the ratio between the number of moles in the total volume of the solution
Molarity
