Molarity and Dilution
Now those pesky moles are swimming! But how much solute is there? Let's learn about how we measure concentrations of solutions, and how to perform dilution calculations.

Guys, at 0:30 I say "moles solute per liter of solvent", but it's per liter of solution! What a dumb mistake on my part, but it's an important definition to get right so please take note.

Thank you for making this so concise, while also making it clear! Helped me a lot with my classwork. :)
you just helped me pass my exam basically. you magnificent man.
Short, to the point, incredible explanation. THANK YOU!
Holy hell I couldn't remember this simple equation for the life of me trying to figure out a concentration problem. Clutch. Thank you!
I try to be serious and focus but the face at 0:08 fucking kills me lmfao
you have helped me big time ..i appreciate
your channel gonna be the best😍❤️
What about Precipitate kind of elements, its that count in this term as well? Anyway thank you Prof. Dave💎
Is proportional dilution same as stock dilution ?
thank you profesor Dave 👑
Hi just gonna ask if you are converting mL to Liters you should divide it by 1000 right? should it be 0.2L or 0.200L? the answer will be different but only in decimal places.

yep that's right. number of decimal places will depend on the number of sig figs present.

Thanks prof. Great
what calculations did u have to do to get 0.600L of water? great video btw
Great videos! Just a quick question. For the sample problem, when I calculate the molar mass of Ca(OH)2 I get 92.1 not 74.1. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

you can just google the molar mass as well. im not sure what you are doing wrong but The molar mass of calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2 , is 74.092 g/mol rounded up to 74.1. You take the molar mass of CA and then oxygen and hydrogen. Since there is a 2 around (OH) you need to double both oxygen and hydrogen so its 40.078+ 16+16 + 1.008 +1.008 totaling around 74.1
has anyone pointed out that molarity is moles of solute per liter of SOLUTION? just wondering
Where did the 74.1g come from?
Thanx prof. Dave
1:21 does that mean that even after adding more solvent volume of solute remains constant?
@gabriels2395
4 жыл бұрын
I would say YES. Because the volume of solute only increases by adding more solute. Now it is the CONCENTRATION of that solute the one that changes if the volume of solvent is altered. This because the concentration is a "ratio" between the solute AND the solvent.

Can someone explain the intuition behind why dilution can be represented with the M1*V1 = M2*V2 equation? I don't want to just blindly use the formula - would like to know why it works. Is there a way to do these dilution problems with dimensional analysis?
@ProfessorDaveExplains

well concentration and volume are inversely proportional, if you double the volume of solvent, the concentration will necessarily be cut in half

First of all, thanks for the great videos. I just have a quick question. Are you supposed to add the mass of the solute to the solvent to get the total mass of the solution? I don't know this for certain, and want to make sure I am doing the right calculations. Thanks in advance. *Edit* Mean't volume, not mass.

well here mass doesn't come into play, as molarity is moles solute per liter solution. but there could be other applications where mass is relevant.
@1NikkiPink1

So the volume of the solution is the same with or without the solute inside? That's what I meant.

@ProfessorDaveExplains

oh, yes! i know it seems weird but solute will fit into the spots between the solvent particles and won't impact the overall volume, so if adding a solid solute, we don't have to factor that into the total volume. of course if combining liquids, we do add the volumes.

Tråp Jäw Gùłçh it’s not that hard. I actually wish I could take more courses. I am taking dosage calculations for nursing and I am struggling. That class is mostly chemistry and math. I feel I am smart person, but the class is two days a week and the teacher seems she expects us to understand what is going on. In my opinion, she is sort of neglectful when I ask her questions. I feel I need to open up my mind more about chemistry.
