Objective 2
1. Concentration is the measure of how much of one substance in another substance. To concentrate a solution, you put more solute in a solvent. The units for measuring concentration are molarity, normality, and weight. So to measure the concentration you need to find the ratio of the solvent to the solute.2. You can figure out what a substance is because of its solubility. You can use the characteristic of solubility to know how much of a substance can be dissolved in a solvent. If you know the solubility of a solvent, then you know how much of a solute can be added until the solvent is at its maximum concentration.
3. The three factors that affect the solubility are temperature, pressure, and the type of solvent.
4. High temperature, or heat, is required to break the bonds that hold the molecules together. Solubility depends on heat.
5. You can do tests on the substance to see how much of something can be dissolved in it. This will help you identify the substance, if you already know the solubility.
