Find Molarity of 0.38 Mol of Lino3 of Each Solution
Custom Search
Definitions
Solute- the substance being dissolved
Solvent- the substance doing the dissolving (the larger amount)
Solution- a homogeneous mixture of the solute and the solvent
Solution= solvent + solute
Aqueous (aq)= water solution
Tincture= alcohol solution
Amalgam= Mercury solution
Molarity (M)- is the molar concentration of a solution measured in moles of solute per liter of solution.
The molarity definition is based on the volume of the solution, NOT the volume of water.
Vocab. Lesson
Incorrect= The solution is 5.0 Molarity.
Correct= The solution is 5.0 Molar.
Example Problems
Level 1- Given moles and liters
Determine the molarity when 3.0 moles of sucrose are dissolved to make 2.0 liters of solution.
3.0 mol | = X = 1.5M solution |
2.0 liters |
Level 2- Given Molarity and liters of solution
Determine the number of moles of salt dissolved in 5.0 liters of a 0.50M solution of salt water.
X mol | = 0.5M solution |
5.0 liters |
cross multiply, X= 2.5 mols
Level 3- Given grams (instead of moles) and liters of solution
Determine the molarity when 117g of NaCl are dissolved to make 0.500 liters of solution.
1st convert to moles, 2nd plug into the molarity equation
117g NaCl( 1mol/58.5g)= 2.00mol NaCl
2.00 mol | = 4.00M solution |
0.500 liters |
Level 4-Given grams (instead of moles) and milliliters of solution (instead of liters)
Determine the molarity when 55.5g of CaCl2 are dissolved to make 250.mL of solution.
1st convert to moles, 2nd convert to liters, 3rd plug into the molarity equation
55.5g CaCl2( 1mol/111g)= 0.500mol CaCl2
250.ml( 1L/1000mL) =0.250L
0.500 mol | = 2.00M solution |
0.250 liters |
