What is concentration
The amount of a substance in a certain volume of solution
1 of 16
What is a solute
The substance that's dissolved
2 of 16
What is a solvent
The liquid in which something is dissolved
3 of 16
What is a solution
A mixture made of a solute dissolved in a solvent
4 of 16
How do you calculate concentration using mass
Mass of solute divided by volume of solution
5 of 16
How do you increase concentration
By adding more solute
6 of 16
How do you decrease concentration
By adding more solvent
7 of 16
What units is concentration using mass given in
Typically, g/dm cubed
8 of 16
What is uncertainty in measurements
When you repeat an experiment multiple times, you get a range of answers. You use them to calculate a mean, but the greater the range of your results, the greater the uncertainty
9 of 16
What is precision in measurements
How detailed the measurement is (more decimal places, smaller units)
10 of 16
What is accuracy in measurements
How close to the truth the answer is, so repeating an experiment and taking a mean will be more accurate
11 of 16
What is another unit of concentration (besides g/dm cubed)
Mol/dm cubed
12 of 16
How do you calculate concentration in mol/dm cubed
Amount of solute divided by volume of solution
13 of 16
How do you convert concentration from g/dm cubed to mol/dm cubed
Concentration in g/dm cubed divided by the Mr
14 of 16
How would you calculate the concentration of an unknown substance using the concentration of a known substance in a reaction in mol/dm cubed
Work out how many moles of the known substance you have, then use a balanced equation of the reaction to calculate the moles of the unknown substance, and use this to calculate concentration
15 of 16
How would you calculate the concentration of an unknown substance using the concentration of a known substance in a reaction in g/dm cubed
Calculate the concentration in mol/dm cubed, and the Mr, then convert into g/dm cubed
