Chapter U4.13, Problem 1TAI

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The way to keep track of compounds in the solution needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Solutions are those in which two or more than one substances are homogeneously mixed. Solution is made with solutes and solvents.

Answer to Problem 1TAI

Concentration of solution gives idea about the amount of solute present in certain volume of solution.

Explanation of Solution

Amount of solute present in the solution can be found if the concentration is known. For unknown solution, the solute can be obtained after evaporating the solvent and then drying the solute properly before weighing. In a solution, containing solute and solvent, the solvent is always present in larger concentartion and solute is dissolved in it. The concentartion of solution is caclulated by taking number of moles or mass of solute in 1 L of the solution.
