Solutions Flashcards
Molarity
concentration measured by the number of moles of solute per liter of solution
Avogadro’s Number
6.022*10^23
atoms of an element in a mole
Mass
molarity X volume X molar mass
to prepare 100 mL of 1M NaOH (molar mass= 40.0g/mol)
g= 1 M X 40.0 g/mol X 0.1 L
g= 4 ( dissolve 4g of NaOH in 100 mL water)
Parallel Dilutions
C1V1 = C2V2
C1 = original concentration (of stock solution)
C2 = final concentration (of diluted solution)
V1 = original volume (to be taken from stock solution)
V2 = final volume (of diluted solution)
Serial Dilutions
Made from dilutions
Dilution Factor= (V1 + V2 ) / V1
Where V1 is the volume of the solution being diluted
V2 is the volume of solvent (usually water) used to dilute the solution
