Measuring Concentration: There are several different ways to measure and express the concentration of a solution. Molarity (Section 12.3) the term we learned earlier, refers to the concentration of a solution expressed in moles of solute per liter of solution. We also use several other units, including the following: 1. Percent by Mass 2. 3. 4.
5.
mass of solute (g) x100% mass of solution (g) volume of solute (mL) Percent by Volume x100% volume of solution (mL) mass of solute (mg) Mass/Volume Percent x100% (units are used in medicine) volume of solution (dL) 1 g of solute Parts per million 1 x 106 g of solution ! For this type of unit, these equivalents work for water solutions: 1 ppm = 1 mg/L 1 ppb = 1g/L 1 ppt = 1 ng/L ppm = parts per million ppb = billion ppt = trillion amount of solute (mol) Molality this unit is independent of temperature mass of solvent (kg)
