Concentration of a solution can be expressed in terms of molarity and molality

Molarity is the number of moles of solute in a liter of a solution.

Molarity (M) = Moles of solute/Volume(litres) of solution

Molality is the number of moles of solute in one kg of the solution

Molality (m) = Moles of solute/Mass (kg) of solution

Therefore if the volume or the mass of the solution is changed this would affect the concentration.

In addition, volume is a quantity which depends on temperature. However, mass is independent of temperature. Therefore any changes in temperature, can also bring about a change in the molarity of the solution.

The compound sodium carbonate is a strong electrolyte. Write the reaction when solid sodium carbonate is put into water:

Ludmilka [50]

The compound sodium carbonate is a strong electrolyte because it completely dissociates when placed in water into its component ions. The equation of the reaction can be expressed as:

$Na_2CO_3_{(s)} ---> 2 Na^+_{(aq)} + CO_3^{(2+)}_{(aq)}$

The dissociation leads to the formation of sodium and carbonate ions with the latter held together by its internal covalent bond.

This is unlike weak electrolytes that do not dissociate completely in water or aqueous solutions. Only a small fraction of the solute exists as ions in the solution.
