Q

denoted “mol %”
•equal to 100% times the mole fraction, is sometimes quoted instead of the mole fraction

A

mol %= mol solute/ mol solution x100

19
Q

Equivalent weight solute per liter of solution
•The definition of a gram equivalent varies depending on the type of chemical reaction that is discussed - it can refer to acids, bases, redox species, and ions that will precipitate

A

Normality

20
Q

is the only concentration unit that is reaction dependent.

A

Normality

21
Q

one equivalent (or equivalent weight) of a substance is the amount of that substance which supplies or consumes one mol of reactive species.

A

normality calculations

22
Q

normality formula

A

Normality (N)= Equivalent wt. solute/ liter solution

23
Q

T or F

For Bronsted acids and bases, normality refers to how many moles of H+ or OH- there are per liter.

A

true

24
Q

T or F
Thus, for hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) the normality is equal to the molarity.

A

TRUE

25
Q

t or f
But for substances like sulfuric acid (H2SO4) or barium hydroxide Ba(OH)2, the normality is twice the molarity.
•For a substances like phosphoric acid (H3PO4) and aluminum hydroxide Al(OH)3, normality would be three times the molarity and so forth.

A

TRUE

26
Q

denotes the mass of a substance in a mixture as a percentage of the mass of the entire mixture.

A

% Concentrations

27
Q

% Concentrations formula

A

•% (w/w) = mass solute/ mass solution x 100

28
Q

t or F
Volume-volume percentage (sometimes referred to as percent volume per volume, % v/v) describes the volume of the solute in mL per 100 mL of the resulting solution.
This is most useful when a liquid - liquid solution is being prepared, although it is used for mixtures of gases as well.

A

TRUE

29
Q

used especially in to denote relative proportions in measured quantities; particularly in low-value (high-ratio) proportions at the parts-per-million (ppm), parts-per-billion (ppb), and parts-per-trillion (ppt) level.

A

Parts Per Notation

30
Q

Since parts-per notations are quantity-per-quantity measures, they are known as dimensionless quantities; that is, they are pure numbers with no associated units of measurement

A

Parts Per Notation

31
Q

often used in the measure of dilutions (concentrations) for instance, for measuring the relative abundance of dissolved minerals or pollutants in water.

A

Parts-per notation

32
Q

measure of concentration similar to molarity.

A

Formal Concentration (F)

33
Q

used when solving chemical equilibrium problems. It is calculated based on the formula weights of chemicals per liter of solution.

A

Formal Concentration (F)

34
Q

The difference between ______ and molar concentrations is that the formal concentration indicates moles of the original chemical formula in solution, without regard for the species that actually exist in solution. Molar concentration, on the other hand, is the concentration of species in solution.

A

Formal

35
Q

Reducing the concentration of a solution

A

Dilution

36
Q

The total number of solutes in the solution remains the same after ________, but the volume of the solution becomes greater, resulting in a lower molarity, ppm, mg/L, or % concentration.

A

Dilution

37
Q

(t or f)
When a solution is diluted, solvent is added to lower its concentration.

The amount of solute remains constant before and after the dilution:

moles BEFORE = moles AFTER

A

TRUE

38
Q

(t or f)
You dilute a solution whenever you add solvent to a solution. Adding solvent results in a solution of lower concentration. You can calculate the concentration of a solution following a dilution by applying this equation:
•CiVi = CfVf
•where C is the concentration, V is volume, and the subscripts i and f refer to the initial and final values.

A

true

39
Q

is a method in chemistry that allows quantitative analysis of the concentration of an unknown acid or base solution.

A

Titration

40
Q

It makes use of the neutralization reaction that occurs between acids and bases, and that we know how acids and bases will react if we know their formula.

A

Titration

41
Q

equipment used in a titration are:

A

Burette
•Acid/Base Indicator (the one used varies depending on the reactants)
•Erlenmeyer flask
•Standard Solution (a solution of known concentration, a common one is aqueous Na2CO3)
•Solution of unknown concentration

42
Q

Titration Formula

A

CaVa = CbVb
•Ca = concentration of the acid
•Va = volume of the acid
•Cb = concentration of the base
•Vb = volume of the base

43
Q

There are three types of Titration

A

1) strong acid and strong base
2) weak acid and strong base
3) strong acid and weak base
