Before you start you should know
  • that the percentage indicates how many grams of dissolved substance is in 100 grams of solution;

  • that the percentage concentration of the solution can be calculated based on the weight of the solution and the mass of solute, using the formula: Cp = msmr · 100%;

  • that the density of the solution determines the mass 1 cmIndeks górny 3this solution and that it is calculated based on the formula: d = mrVr [gcm3].

  • how to calculate the percentage concentration of dilute solution.

You will learn
  • determine the percentage concentration of the solution after its concentration;

  • determine the percentage concentration of a solution formed after mixing two solutions of the same substance at different concentrations.

The process during which the amount of substance increases in the solution

Sometimes, when drinking tea or other drink, we find that they are not sweet enough. Then we add another portion of sugar to them. We do the same with soup, which we consider to be quite salty – we also add it. In each case, we deliver the dissolved substance to its solutions. During these treatments, the amount of water does not change. The activity we do is an example of concentrationconcentration of the solutionconcentration.

Too little amount of table salt in pickling cucumbers can make pickling these vegetables fail. Therefore, the cook always tastes the solution before using it and if necessary add another portion of salt
Task 1

Consider and answer what happens to the concentration of the substance during concentration.

In analytical laboratories, sometimes the amount of test substance in the solution is so small that attempts to detect it may fail. Therefore, very often before the analysis, the solvent is evaporated from the solution in order to increase the concentration of the test substance. Evaporation of the solvent is also a common process used in the food industry, eg during the production of sugar, concentrates, jams, concentrated stocks or juices.

In chemical laboratories there is often a need to evaporate the solvent from solutions. This treatment is performed using a device called an evaporator

What happens in solutions during concentration?

RnJhqaaZwdCzq
The model of the solution concentration process by evaporation of the solvent. During the evaporation of the solvent from the solution, the number of solvent particles per diluted matter particles decreases. Thus, the mass of solvent relative to the mass of solute decreases
RuR2gqecyEUB3
The model of the process of concentrating the solution by adding another portion of the substance to it. When a new portion of substance is added to the solution, the number of particles is increased for the solvent particles. The weight of the substance increases with respect to the weight of the solvent
Task 2

Watch the presentation „Stages of solving the task for calculating the concentration”. Pay attention to the methods of calculating the percentage when diluting the solution by adding water.

Can we calculate the concentration of the solution resulting from the mixing of two solutions?

Sometimes we mix solutions of the same substance with each other. If the concentration of both solutions is the same, the solution after mixing will also have the same concentration.

R1GrKnD18sQpY
10% vinegar, regardless of where it was produced, always contains the same amount of acetic acid in a given mass of water

If, however, we mix solutions of the same substance with different concentrations, the concentration of the resulting solution will be different from the concentration of both solutions used. You can calculate them.

Task 3

Watch the presentation „Stages of solving the problem for calculating the percentage concentration when mixing solutions of two different concentrations according to the rule of St. Andrew”. Pay attention to the cross‑flow pattern in solving this type of tasks.

  1. We calculate the mass of sugar in both solutions.
    Calculations for a 5% solution:

Calculations for a 12% solution:

R17Aes0ZEwDuA
  1. We calculate the total weight of sugar:

    total mass of sugar = mass of sugar from a 5% solution + mass of sugar from a 12% solution = 2.5 g + 4.8 g = 7.3 g

  2. We calculate the total mass of the solution resulting after mixing:

    total solution weight = 50 g + 40 g = 90 g total solution weight = 50 g + 40 g = 90 g

  3. Calculate the percentage concentration of the solution after mixing:

Exercise 4
Indicate activities whose execution will increase the percentage value of a given solution: Możliwe odpowiedzi: 1. evaporation of the solvent, 2. addition of solvent, 3. adding a solution with lower concentration, 4. addition of substances, 5. adding a solution with a higher concentration

Summary

  • The concentration of the solution may be varied by dilution or concentration.

  • As a result of dilution, the concentration of the solution decreases, and as a result of concentration – increases.

  • The solution can be diluted by adding a solvent to it.

  • Increasing the concentration of the solution occurs after evaporation of the solvent or the addition of a new portion of solute.

  • The concentration of the solution that will result from mixing solutions of the same substance but with different concentrations will differ from the concentrations of the solutions used to mix.
