OBJECTIVES of the Experiment
dilution.
Identify the number of replaceable hydrogen ions (H+) in the following acids:
(i) HCl =1 (iii) H2SO4 =2
(ii) CH3COOH =1 (iv) H3PO4 =3
Identify the number of replaceable hydroxide ions (OH-) in the following bases:
SAMPLE PROBLEM:
What is the normality for a solution with 0.587 g of NaOH in 25.7 mL?
❑In such cases, it is more convenient to use the unit parts per million (ppm) to express
concentration.
❑For example, if drinking water is polluted with lead ions to the extent of 1 ppm, it
means that there is 1 mg of lead ions in 1 kg (1 L) of water.
❑When reporting concentration in ppm, the units must be the same for both solute and
solvent—for example, mg of solute per 106 mg of solution, or g solute per g of solution.
• You just calculated the molar mass of sodium chloride to be 58.44 g/mol.
• To determine how to make a stock solution of sodium chloride, use the formula:
g = M x L x molar mass
HOW MUCH SOLUTE IS NEEDED FOR A SOLUTION OF A PARTICULAR MOLARITY
AND VOLUME?
(g solute ) X (mole) X (L) = g solute needed
1 mole L
Or
FW X molarity x volume = g solute needed
Making Solutions
g = M x L x molar mass
g = (5mol/L) (0.2L) (58.44g/mol)
g = 58.44 g
ACTIVITY 2: Calculations
Making Dilutions
• Diluting a solution reduces the number of moles of solute per unit volume, but the total number of
moles of solute in solution does not change.
• Often once you have made a stock solution, you need to dilute it to a working concentration.
• To determine how to dilute the stock solution, use the formula:
C1V1 = C2V2
C1 – concentration of stock
C2 - concentration of diluted solution
V1 – volume needed of stock
V2 – final volume of dilution
