Determining the concentration of a solution?
To determine the concentration of a solution, there are several options. You can evaporate the liquid off and measure what remains. You could also analyze a sample of the solution to determine the exact components.
What is concentration solute?
In relation to solute concentration,which way will the water flow
How could you determine the solute concentration inside a living cell?
By testing whether it is hyper or hypotonic solution. Also, the water potential!!
What is the consentration of a solution?
Concentrated solution is a solution that contains a large amount of solute relative to the amount that could dissolve.
What is the difference between isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic solution?
The words isotonic, hypertonic, and hypotonic refer to the relationship between two solutions. - When two solutions are isotonic to one another, the two solutions have the same amount of solute as each other. - When a solution is hypertonic in reference to another solution, that solution has more solute than the other. - When a solution is hypotonic in reference to another solution, that solution has less solute than the other. - Thus, on a scale of INCREASING solutes, you could align three solutions like this: hypotonic --> isotonic --> hypertonic. Secondly, since substances move from a region of high concentration (more solute) to low concentration (less solute), remember that solutes will always move from a hypertonic solution to a hypotonic solution OR solvents will always move from a hypotonic solution to a hypertonic solution. A good way to remember this is to know that "hyper" means above (more than) and hypo means "below" (less than), e.g. in HYPERactive = being really energetic or more energetic than normal vs. HYPOthermia = being very cold or below the normal temperature. A way to figure out whether a solution is isotonic, hypertonic, or hypotonic in respect to another solution is to figure out the solutions tonacities. Tonacity is the measure of solute in a solution. Therefore, something hypertonic has more tonacity or more solute than another solution. Some people learn the term "solute potential," which has a similar concept to tonacity. Examples: A 0.4 mol glucose solution is isotonic to a 0.4 mol glucose solution. A 0.4 mol glucose solution is hypertonic to a 0.2 mol glucose solution. A 0.2 mol glucose solution is hypotonic to a 0.4 mol glucose solution.
How do you calculate the concentration of a salt solution with known conductivity?
There are a few different ways you could calculate the concentration of a salt solution with known conductivity. You could compare this amount of salt with pure water for example and take notes on the differences.
What do you need to grow aeroponic plants?
A container to hold the plants by the collar so that the roots are suspended. The container needs to be slightly sloped and provide drainage points for the nutrient solution to be recycled back to the nutrient reservoir. An automated spray system to spray the nutrient solution onto the suspended roots. The misting portion of the system needs to be housed within the enclosed container. A nutrient reservoir to collect the nutrient solution in. This would normally be equipped with a pump (to spray the nutrients) as well as an oxygenation system to oxygenate the solution. Depending on how sophisticated a system you wanted, temperature, pH and automatic nutrient dosing systems could be included.
What property of solution could you change to get a greater temperature change in endothermic and exothermic reactions?
Concentration.
What is the solution called when a acid is added to alkali?
The solution could be neutral, acidic or basic depending on the concentration or the volume of the acid or alkali used.
Why dont you weigh a solution dispensed at the beginning of an experiment?
Technically, as long as you record the volume of the solution and are sure of the concentration, you could extrapolate the weight.
What are two ways you can decrease the concentration of a solution?
Well, a solution is made of a solute dissolved into a solvent, so you could decrease the concentration either by adding more solvent ("watering it down") or removing some solute.
Determining the concentration of a solution?
To determine the concentration of a solution, there are several options. You can evaporate the liquid off and measure what remains. You could also analyze a sample of the solution to determine the exact components.
How could determine the concentration of ascorbic acid in an unknown sample?
The concentration of ascorbic acid in an unknown sample can be obtain by conducting a few steps by using the DCPIP test. Firstly, we must obtain the volume (dm ) of the sample solution which are required to turn the DCPIP solution (blue) colour into colourless. After obtaining the volume we use an electronic balance to obtain the mass of the sample solution in gram (g). Then we use the concentration formula of [mass (g) of solute per volume (dm ) of solution] to find out the concentration. Hence. The concentration obtained was the concentration of ascorbic acid.
A solution of seawater contains 3 g salt in 97 g of water. What is the concentration of this solution?
Concentration can be expressed in different ways. For 3 g NaCl (salt) in 97 g water, it could expressed as 3% (w/w), or it could be 0.51 molal. Without knowing the density of the solution, you cannot reliable estimate the molarity.
Is dilute related to acid?
Not necessarily. When a dilute substance is one that has a low concentration in a given solution. It could refer to any dissolved substance which may or may not be an acid. If a solution is acidic, then the acidity will depend on both the concentration and the strength of the acid.
Explain why it is not enough just to say that a solution is hypertonic?
hypertonic and hypotonic are relative terms. A solution that is hypertonic to tap H2O could be hypotonic to seawater. In using these terms, you must provide a comparison, as in 'the solution is hypertonic to the cells cytoplasm'.
What do you mean by concentrated solution?
The quantity of a dissolved constituent in a unit volume or mass of the solution is the most common meaning. "Concentration" could also mean "concentrating", which is a process of increasing the first given meaning of "concentration" in the solution, most often by decreasing the amount of solvent per unit volume or mass.
