Key Stage 2

Meaning

Concentration is how dilute or concentrated a solution is.

About Concentration

When orange juice is added to water if there is a lot of water but not much orange juice then the solution is dilute. If there is a lot of orange juice, but very little water then it is concentrated.

Key Stage 3

Meaning

Concentration is the ratio of a solute to a solvent.

or

The relative abundance of particles in a region.

About Concentration

The more solute in a solution the higher the concentration.
The more solvent in a solution the lower the concentration.
Concentration can have several units but the most common one used in science is Molarity (M).

Key Stage 4

Meaning

Concentration is the ratio of the mass of solute to the volume of solvent.

About Concentration

Concentration can be measured in g/dm3 or mol/dm3 (Molarity).
When calculating concentration in g/dm3 the mass of the solute is measured in grams and the volume of solvent is measured in decimetres cubed.
When calculating concentration in mol/dm3 the amount of solute is measured in Moles by finding the mass and the relative formula mass of the chemical to find out the number of moles and the volume of solvent is measured in decimetres cubed.

Equation

Concentration by Mass

concentration (g/dm3) = \(\frac{mass (g)}{volume (dm^3)}\)

Where:

mass = The mass of the solute.
volume = The volume of solvent.

Concentration by Moles

concentration (mol/dm3) = \(\frac{Moles (mol)}{volume (dm^3)}\)

Where:

Moles = The number of moles of the solute. Found by dividing the mass in grams by the relative formula mass.
volume = The volume of solvent.

Calculating Concentration

Concentration by Mass

117g of NaCl is dissolved in 0.5dm3 of water. Calculate the concentration in g/dm3. 28g of KOH is dissolved in 100ml of water. Calculate the concentration in g/dm3. 73g of HCl is dissolved in 400ml of water. Calculate the concentration in g/dm3.

State the mass in grams and the volume in dm3:

mass = 117g

volume = 0.5dm3

State the mass in grams and the volume in dm3:

mass = 28g

volume = 100ml

The volume must be converted into dm3 from ml.

volume in dm3 = (volume in ml)/1000

volume = 0.1dm3

State the mass in grams and the volume in dm3:

mass = 73g

volume = 400ml

The volume must be converted into dm3 from ml.

volume in dm3 = (volume in ml)/1000

volume = 0.4dm3

Calculate the Concentration:

concentration (g/dm3) = \(\frac{mass (g)}{volume (dm^3)}\)

concentration = \(\frac{117}{0.5}\)

concentration = 234g/dm3

Calculate the Concentration:

concentration (g/dm3) = \(\frac{mass (g)}{volume (dm^3)}\)

concentration = \(\frac{28}{0.1}\)

concentration = 280g/dm3

Calculate the Concentration:

concentration (g/dm3) = \(\frac{mass (g)}{volume (dm^3)}\)

concentration = \(\frac{73}{0.4}\)

concentration = 182.5g/dm3

Concentration as Molarity

117g of NaCl is dissolved in 0.5dm3 of water. Calculate the concentration in g/dm3. 28g of KOH is dissolved in 100ml of water. Calculate the concentration in g/dm3. 7.3g of HCl is dissolved in 400ml of water. Calculate the concentration in g/dm3.

Find the number of moles. mass = 117g

Relative Formula Mass = 58.5g

Number of Moles of a Compound = (Mass of compound)/(Relative Formula Mass of compound)

Number of Moles = \({\frac{m}{M_r}}\)

Number of Moles = \({\frac{117}{58.5}}\)

Number of Moles = 2mol


State the mass in grams and the volume in dm3: Find the number of moles. mass = 28g

Relative Formula Mass = 56g

Number of Moles of a Compound = (Mass of compound)/(Relative Formula Mass of compound)

Number of Moles = \({\frac{m}{M_r}}\)

Number of Moles = \({\frac{28}{56}}\)

Number of Moles = 0.5mol

Find the number of moles. mass = 7.3g

Relative Formula Mass = 36.5g

Number of Moles of a Compound = (Mass of compound)/(Relative Formula Mass of compound)

Number of Moles = \({\frac{m}{M_r}}\)

Number of Moles = \({\frac{7.3}{36.5}}\)

Number of Moles = 0.2mol

volume = 0.5dm3

volume = 100ml

The volume must be converted into dm3 from ml.

volume in dm3 = (volume in ml)/1000

volume = 0.1dm3

volume = 400ml

The volume must be converted into dm3 from ml.

volume in dm3 = (volume in ml)/1000

volume = 0.4dm3

Calculate the Concentration:

concentration (mol/dm3) = \(\frac{Moles (mol)}{volume (dm^3)}\)

concentration = \(\frac{2}{0.5}\)

concentration = 4mol/dm3 = 4M

Calculate the Concentration:

concentration (mol/dm3) = \(\frac{Moles (mol)}{volume (dm^3)}\)

concentration = \(\frac{0.5}{0.1}\)

concentration = 5mol/dm3 = 5M

Calculate the Concentration:

concentration (mol/dm3) = \(\frac{mass (g)}{volume (dm^3)}\)

concentration = \(\frac{0.2}{0.4}\)

concentration = 0.5mol/dm3 = 5M
