Topic: Concentration of Solutions (Percent by volume of solute and percent by volume of solvent)
Content Standard: The learners demonstrate an understanding of some important properties of
solutions.
Performance Standard: The learners demonstrate an understanding of preparing different
concentrations of mixtures according to uses and availability of materials.
Learning Competency: Express concentrations of solutions quantitatively by preparing different
mixtures according to uses and availability of materials.
Code: S7MT-Id-3
Learning Target/s:
1. Recognize the given that can be used to compute for the concentration of a solution;
2. Answer a given problem using the correct formula in finding the percent by volume of a
solution; and
3. List the correct answer to a given problem using the correct formula in finding the
concentration of a solution.
Concept Notes
Volume of solution = volume of solute + volume of solvent
Volume percent of solute = volume of solute x 100
volume of solution
Volume percent of solvent = volume of solvent x 100
volume of solution
Example:
1. A solution is prepared with 15 mL of ethyl alcohol in 50 grams of water. Compute for the
volume percent of the solute.
Given:
Volume of solute = 15 mL ethyl alcohol Volume of solvent = 50 mL water
Required:
Volume percent of solute
Solution:
Volume of solution = volume of solute + volume of solvent
= 15 mL + 50 mL
Volume of solution = 65 mL
Volume percent of solute = volume of solute x 100
volume of solution
= 15 mL x 100
65 mL
= (0.2308)(100)
Volume percent of solute = 23.08 %
2. From the same given problem, compute for the volume percent of solvent.
Given:
Volume of solute = 15 mL ethyl alcohol Volume of solvent = 50 mL water
Required:
Volume percent of solute
Solution:
Volume of solution = volume of solute + volume of solvent
= 15 mL + 50 mL
Volume of solution = 65 mL
Volume percent of solvent = volume of solvent x 100
volume of solution
= 50 mL x 100
65 mL
= (0.7692)(100)
Volume percent of solvent = 76.92 %
To check:
Simply add the mass percent of your solute and solvent. You should always be getting a
100% solution.
23.08 + 76.92 = 100
