more substances, the relative proportions of which may vary continuously within certain limits and evenly distributed in each other. 2. ways of expressing concentration solution 1. Weight/Volume Percent Concentration = amount of solute/amount of solution %W/V= (grams solute/milliliters of solution) x 100 2. ways of expressing concentration solution 2. Weight/Weight Percent
%WW = (grams solute/grams solute + grams
solvent) x 100 2. ways of expressing concentration solution 3. Mole Fraction (X)
Mole Fraction (XA) = nA/nT where:
XA= mole fraction of A nA= number of moles of A nT= total number of moles 2. ways of expressing concentration solution 4. Molarity (M)
Molarity= moles of solute/ liter of solution
M= (wt of solute/ mwt of solute)/ L of solution 2. ways of expressing concentration solution 5. Molality
Molality = moles of solute/ kilogram of solvent
M = (wt. solute/mwt solute) / kg solvent 3. Factors affecting solubility 1.Temperature - Most solid or liquid solutes dissolves faster with higher. The higher the temperature, the more easy and faster for the solute to dissolve. 3. Factors affecting solubility 2. Stirring- as we stir faster and constantly, the faster the solute to dissolve. 3. Factors affecting solubility 3. Particle size- small particles have a higher interfacial solubility. The smaller the particle, the faster for it to dissolve. 3. Factors affecting solubility 4. Pressure- the higher the pressure, the faster for the solute to dissolve.
