MOLARITY

solute

substance being dissolved in a liquid. (smallest amount)

solvent

the liquid a substance is being dissolved in (largest amount)

solution

Homogeneous mixture of two or more substances consisting of ions and molecules

Concentration

amount of solute in an amount of solution

Solutions with relatively small amounts of solute per volume of a solvent are what?

dilute

solutions with relatively large amounts of solute per volume of a solvent are what

concentrated

Molarity units

mol/L or M

what does M1,V1=M2 ,V2 stand for

• dilution equation

• M1= molarity of concentrated solutionn

• V2= volume of concentrated solution

• M2- molarity of dilute solution

• V2= volume of dilute solution
