A Solution is a homogenous mixture. Solute is the component present in smaller smaller amount while the solvent is the component present in larger amount.
Concentration can be defined as the ratio of the amount of solute over the amount of solvent.
Possible units for concentration are: g/mL, g/L, mg/mL, mL/L and so on. However, we would use mol/L more often.
mol/L is also known as Molarity. Molarity is the ratio of moles of solute per litres of solution.
"con'c " is another way of writing Concentration.
"[ ]" is another way of writing "The Concentration of ..."
Here are some simple equations that we would use in solving for the Molar Concentration of a solution. (You might have to click on the picture to see it better. )
One technique that can help in solving for concentration is that, read the problem carefully and write down what you know. From there on, you can solve as easy as pie! :D
