5 Solutions and
Concentration
Homogeneous Mixture
A substance that dissolves in a solvent is soluble.

Two liquids that are soluble in each other in any

proportion are miscible.
A substance that does not dissolve in a solvent is
insoluble.
Two liquids that can be mixed but separate shortly
after are immiscible.
 A.Concentration (mol/dm3)

Concentration = mol solute (mol)

vol solution (dm3)

dm3 = L
Worked Example #18 – Pg. 15

Calculate the concentration of the solution.

250 cm3

2.0 g NaOH
Worked Example #19 – Pg. 15

Calculate the mass of anhydrous copper (II) sulfate.

We need mass (g). What given
55 cm3 Don’t forget

can help us get
mass?

M = 0.20 mol dm-3
