Different concentration units
Calculating concentrations
What is concentration?
Solution concentration refers to how
much solute is dissolved in a specific
quantity of solvent or solution.
You have already worked with one
type of solution concentration
expression: the water-solubility
curves (mass of solute dissolved in
mass of water)
Percent by Mass
Another way to express
concentration is with percent values
For example, dissolving 5g of table
salt in 95 g of water produces a 100g
solution with a 5% concentration of
salt by mass
% by mass
grams solute
% by mass =
grams total solution
Sample Problem
What is the concentration of a 1%
salt solution expressed in ppm?
ANSWER: Because 1% of 1 million is
10 000, a 1% salt solution is 10 000
ppm.
Sample Problem 2
One teaspoon of sucrose, with a mass of 10.0 g,
is dissolved in 240.0g water. What is the
concentration of the solution expressed as grams
sucrose per 100 g solution? As percent sucrose
by mass?
Answer 1: This solution contains 10.0 g sucrose
and 240.0g water; therefore its total mass is
250.0g. Because 100.0 g solution would contain
2/5 as much solution, it would also contain 2/5 as
much solute, or 4.0 g sucrose. Thus, the
concentration is 4.0 g sucrose per 100.0 g
solution.
Answer 2: % by mass = (10.0 g sucrose/250.0 g
soln)x 100 = 4.0%

What mass of oxalic acid, H2C2O4, is
required to make 250. mL of a 0.0500 M
solution?
moles = MV
Step 1: Change mL to L.
250 mL * 1L/1000mL = 0.250 L
Step 2: Calculate.
Moles = (0.0500 mol/L) (0.250 L) =
0.0125 moles
Step 3: Convert moles to grams.
(0.0125 mol)(90.00 g/mol) = 1.13 g
