Of a solute in solution Amount of substance Divided by solvent quality , is called the mass molar concentration of the solute (mol/kg). In very dilute aqueous solution, it can be approximately considered that Amount and concentration of substance Is numerically equal to the molar mass concentration. This is because when the aqueous solution is very dilute, the mass of solute can be ignored, the volume of solution can be considered as the same as the volume of water, the density is 1kg/L, the mass of solvent water is approximately equal to the mass of solution, and numerically equal to the volume of solution V (L)。 [1]

definition

edit
Molar mass concentration of solute B, the symbol is b B Or b (B), which is defined as the amount of solute B in the solution
Divided by the mass of solvent A, the mathematical expression is [2]
Where, SI unit of mass molar concentration is mol · kg -1 Or mol/kg. (Molar mass concentration is recorded as m B , pay attention to subscripts, but in order to avoid m Symbol confusion, using b For easy understanding.)

(1) Quality
It refers to the quality of solvent rather than the quality of solution.
(2) Molar concentration refers to the amount concentration solution of the substance, not the mass molar concentration.
(3) Solute B can be a simple substance, a compound, or a specific combination of ions or other complex ions.
For example: b (Cl two )=0.1mol·kg -1 、b(NaCl)=2.0mol·kg -1 、 b(Fe 2+ )=0.5mol·kg -1 Etc. [3]

application

Since the mass molar concentration of solute B is independent of temperature, the volume of solvent in the mass concentration of substance may be affected by temperature. Therefore, the mass molar concentration is mostly used in thermodynamic treatment, and the mass molar concentration is also mainly used in electrochemistry to represent the concentration of electrolyte. However, when the solvent is a dilute solution of water, that is, b B <0.100mol·kg -1 b B And c B The values of are approximately equal. [1]

Concentration conversion

edit
There are four common expressions of concentration: Amount and concentration of substance , molar mass concentration mole fraction mass fraction The following is the specific conversion formula:
Amount concentration of substance c B Converted to molar mass concentration b B
Molar fraction x B Converted to molar mass concentration b B
Mass fraction w B Converted to molar mass concentration b B
Among them, n Is the total amount of substances in the solution, V Is the total volume of the solution. [4]
