Molarity
Molarity (moles/liter = M) is the most common concentration unit used for solutions. Molarity is defined as the number of moles of a solute dissolved in 1liter of solution.
# moles solute
molarity (M) = ---------------------
# liters solution
NOTE: Moles are derived from the equation
1 mol
moles = grams (given) * -----------------
molar mass
Molarity can also be used to calculate:
• the volume of the solution, if the number of moles of solute is given
• the number of moles of solute, if the volume of the solution is given
From the moles of solute calculated, you can also find:
• the molar mass of the solute, if the weight of the solute is given
• the grams of the solute, if the molar mass of the solute is given
EXAMPLE: A solution is prepared by dissolving 16.00 grams of NaCl in water to make 0.600 L of solution. Calculate the molarity of the solution.
First convert the grams of NaCl to moles.
The molar mass of NaCl is 58.44 grams.
1.00 mol NaCl
16.00 grams NaCl * --------------------- = 0.274 moles NaCl
58.44 g NaCl
Then solve for the molarity of the solution.
0.274 mole NaCl
M = ------------------------ = 0.457 M NaCl
0.600 L
Note: the units used for molarity (moles/L) is also used later on as the units in solubility and concentration.
Molarity is also used in finding the concentration of ions when a dissociation reaction occurs. The concentration depends on the coefficients of the reaction as it dissociates into different ions. The concentration of one particular ion that is formed can be found by multiplying the number of liters of solution to the coefficient of that ion.
EXAMPLE: HCl(l) ( H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
For this reaction the ratio of all the coefficients is 1 to 1. In a water solution, HCl dissociates into one mole of hydrogen ion and one chloride ion. So in one liter of solution the concentration of the hydrogen ion is 1 M. It is also 1 M for the concentration of the chloride ion.
PRACTICE: Find the concentration of the hydrogen ions, and the sulfate ions of the dissociation of 3 moles sulfuric acid (H2SO4) in 1.5 L of solution. Assume no volume change.
Answer: [H+] = 4.0 M ; [SO4-2] = 2.0 M
