What is the molarity of a solution containing of NaOH in 500 ml of solution?

Definitions

Solute-the substance being dissolved

Solvent-the substance doing the dissolving (the larger amount)

Solution- a homogeneous mixture of the solute and the solvent

Solution= solvent + solute

Aqueous (aq)= water solution

Tincture= alcohol solution

Amalgam= Mercury solution

Molarity (M)- is the molar concentration of a solution measured in moles of solute per liter of solution.

What is the molarity of a solution containing of NaOH in 500 ml of solution?

The molarity definition is based on the volume of the solution, NOT the volume of water.

Vocab. Lesson

 Incorrect= The solution is 5.0 Molarity.

Correct= The solution is 5.0 Molar.

 Example Problems

Level 1- Given moles and liters

Determine the molarity when 3.0 moles of sucrose are dissolved to make 2.0 liters of solution.

3.0 mol= X  = 1.5M solution
2.0 liters

Level 2- Given Molarity and liters of solution

 Determine the number of moles of salt dissolved in 5.0 liters of a 0.50M solution of salt water.

X mol= 0.5M solution
5.0 liters

cross multiply, X= 2.5 mols

Level 3- Given grams (instead of moles) and liters of solution

Determine the molarity when 117g of NaCl are dissolved to make 0.500 liters of solution.

   1st convert to moles, 2nd plug into the molarity equation

117g NaCl( 1mol/58.5g)= 2.00mol NaCl

2.00 mol= 4.00M solution
0.500 liters

Level 4-Given grams (instead of moles) and milliliters of solution (instead of liters)

Determine the molarity when 55.5g of CaCl2 are dissolved to make 250.mL of solution.

1st convert to moles, 2nd convert to liters, 3rd plug into the molarity equation

55.5g CaCl2( 1mol/111g)= 0.500mol CaCl2

250.ml( 1L/1000mL) =0.250L

0.500 mol= 2.00M solution
0.250 liters
