CONCENTRATION

INTRODUCTION

A solution may be classified whether dilute or concentrated. This is qualitatively described


based on the relative amount of solute against solvent. Quite differently, a solution may
be classified as unsaturated, saturated, or supersaturated. Their difference lies on the
concentration relative to the saturation value at a particular temperature.

There are several ways to express concentration. The simplest method is the percent
by mass and percent by volume in which the mass or volume of the solute is divided
by the total mass or total volume of the solution and multiplies by a hundred percent.
This is frequently used in laboratories not only in schools but also in some industries.
Molarity, which is the number of moles in a liter of the solution is equally useful in
pharmaceutical industry in particular and chemical industry in general.

Substances have different solubility in a particular solvent. Compounds which are


less soluble produce a dilute solution yet a saturated one. Conversely a compound may
produce a concentrated and at the same time saturated if it has a relatively high solubility.

OBJECTIVES

1. To understand how the concentration changes as more solute is being added.

2. To appreciate the concept of solubility and saturation in solutions.

PROCEDURE

1. Access this link as the simulator that will be used in this activity:

ml

2. Set the solvent at 0.5 L. Change the solute samples once you determined the
amount needed for the solution to be saturated. Use the concentration
detector to determine the required amount.

QUESTIONS

1. Know the saturation value of the substances used in the simulation. Which
one is the most soluble (in g/L)? Which has the highest molarity at its
saturation point? Encircle your answer in the table.

It is 100 grams of a solvent at a given temperature(100°C), the line of solubility
curve represents a saturated solution or one in which the maximum quantity of
solute may be dissolved in 100 grams of water. It says that any amount of a
substance below the lines represents the unsaturated solution, and in addition
anything that over the line indicates a supersaturated solution.

APPLICATION PROBLEMS. Follow strictly the rules on Significant Figures.
