Concentration Terms (Continued)
1) % Concentration :
= weight of solute/100 g of solution. 
·· It does not change on changing temperature.
Ex. 10% w/w urea solution
= 10 gm of urea is present in 100 gm of solution.
= 10 gm of urea is present in 90 gm of water.

FAQs on Flashcards: Solutions

1. What's the difference between a solution and a suspension in chemistry?
Ans. A solution is a homogeneous mixture where solute dissolves completely in solvent at the molecular level, remaining invisible even under a microscope. A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture where solid particles remain dispersed but don't dissolve, eventually settling. Solutions are transparent; suspensions are often cloudy. Understanding this distinction is crucial for NEET Chemistry Class 12 exam preparation.
2. How do I calculate molarity and molality for different solute concentrations?
Ans. Molarity measures moles of solute per litre of solution, while molality measures moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. Molarity changes with temperature; molality remains constant. For exam success, memorise: Molarity = moles/volume(L) and Molality = moles/mass of solvent(kg). These concentration terms appear frequently in NEET Chemistry questions on colligative properties.
3. Why does vapour pressure decrease when solute is added to a pure solvent?
Ans. Adding non-volatile solute reduces the number of solvent molecules at the surface available for evaporation, decreasing vapour pressure. This phenomenon, called Raoult's Law, occurs because solute particles occupy surface positions. Lower vapour pressure directly causes boiling point elevation and freezing point depression-key colligative properties tested in NEET Chemistry Class 12.
4. What's the relationship between osmotic pressure and colligative properties?
Ans. Osmotic pressure is the pressure needed to prevent water flow across a semipermeable membrane, directly proportional to solute concentration. It's a colligative property alongside boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, and vapour pressure lowering-all depend only on solute particle number, not identity. The van 't Hoff equation connects osmotic pressure to molarity for solutions.
5. How do I identify ideal versus non-ideal solutions in exam questions?
Ans. Ideal solutions follow Raoult's Law perfectly with zero deviation; components have similar molecular structures and intermolecular forces. Non-ideal solutions show positive or negative deviations due to different molecular interactions. Refer to flashcards and mind maps covering azeotropic mixtures and Henry's Law to distinguish these solution types effectively for NEET Chemistry preparation.
