Chapter 5, Problem 48P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The procedure to make the specific concentration of solute in a solution have to describe.

Concept introduction:

The concentration of any solution is mean the amount of solute present in the specific volume of the solvent. Now the amount of solute present in the solution is expressed by different units like gram, gram-equivalent, gram-mole or mole etc. The amount of solvent to prepare the solution can be expressed in terms of weight or volume. The different unit of expression the concentration of a solution are- percentage strength, normality, molarity, molality, formality, gram per litter, mole fraction, parts per million etc.

Mass percent: In every 100 g solvent the amount of solute present in any solution is called the mass percent strength of the solution. Like- if in per 100 g of any solution 10 g pure is present then the mass percent of the solute in the solvent is 10.
