Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Unchanged concentration of saturated solution on dissolution of more solute has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Solution is used for description of any system that consists of mixture of substances dissolved in another substance. It has two components, solute and solvent. Component that is present in less quantity and is dissolved in another component is called solute while the one that dissolves solute in it and is present in more amounts is known as solvent.
Types of solutions:
1. Saturated solution
When maximum amount of solute is dissolved in solvent, solution becomes saturated. Additional solute becomes undissolved in such types of solutions.
2. Unsaturated solution
When solute less than maximum capacity is added to solvent, unsaturated solution is formed. Additional solute is dissolved in such solution.
3. Supersaturated solution.
Such types of solutions consist of extra amount of solute than that can be actually dissolved in solvent.

- How are the boiling point and freezing point of water affected by the addition of solute?arrow_forwardA patient has a “cholesterol count” of 214. Like manyblood-chemistry measurements,this result is measured inunits of milligrams per deciliter (mgdL1). Determine the molar concentration of cholesterol inthis patient’s blood, taking the molar mass of cholesterolto be 386.64gmol1. Estimate the molality of cholesterol in the patient’sblood. If 214 is a typical cholesterol reading among men inthe United States, determine the volume of such bloodrequired to furnish 8.10 g of cholesterol.arrow_forwardWhat kinds of solute particles are present in a solution of an ionic compound? Of a molecular compound?arrow_forward
- Calculate the concentration in (w/v) of the following solutions: a. 150.mL of solution contains 7.50g of dissolved solid Na2SO4. b. 150.mL of solution contains 7.50g of any dissolved solid solute. c. 350.mL of solution contains 30.7g of dissolved solid solute.arrow_forwardDefine a saturated solution. Does saturated mean the same thing as saying the solution is concentrated? Explain. Why does a solute dissolve only to a particular extent in water? How does formation of a saturated solution represent an equilibrium?arrow_forwardThe following diagrams show varying amounts of the same solute (the red spheres) in varying amounts of solution. a. In which of the diagrams is the solution concentration the largest? b. In which two of the diagrams are the solution concentrations the same?arrow_forward
- Refer to Figure 13.10 ( Sec. 13-4b) to answer these questions. (a) Does a saturated solution occur when 65.0 g LiCl is present in 100 g H2O at 40 C? Explain your answer. (b) Consider a solution that contains 95.0 g LiCl in 100 g H2O at 40 C. Is the solution unsaturated, saturated, or supersaturated? Explain your answer. (c) Consider a solution that contains 50. g Li2SO4 in 200. g H2O at 50 C. Is this solution unsaturated, saturated, or supersaturated? Explain your answer. Figure 13.10 Solubility of ionic compounds versus temperature.arrow_forwardWhen two beakers containing different concentrations of a solute in water are placed in a closed cabinet for a time, one beaker gains solvent and the other loses it, so that the concentrations of solute in the two beakers become equal. Explain what is happening.arrow_forwardSolutions Introduced directly into the bloodstream have to be isotonic with blood; that is, they must have the same osmotic pressure as blood. An aqueous NaCl solution has to be 0.90% by mass to be isotonic with blood. What is the molarity of the sodium ions in solution? Take the density of the solution to be 1.00 g/mL.arrow_forward
