Solution Stoichiometry

Competencies
Use stoichiometrically equivalent molar ratios to calculate
amounts of reactants and products in a reaction of pure and
dissolved substance.

Mole - Mass
Mass - Volume
Mole - Volume Calculation
Mole - Number of Particles
● Aqueous solution chemistry is central to laboratory chemistry.

● Many environmental reactions and almost all biochemical reactions occur in solution.

● Solution stoichiometry refers to the study of the quantitative relationships in substances and their
reactions in solution.

● Solution stoichiometry differs from pure-substances stoichiometry in that the amount of a pure
substance can be obtained by converting its mass into moles.

● For substances in solution, we must know the concentration to find the volume that contains a
given number of moles. Thus, the concept of molarity is very important in solution stoichiometry.

You can think of molarity as a conversion factor. We use it to convert the volume of a solution to the number
of moles of a solute. From the result, we can find the mass or the number of particles of a solute.
Generally, we follow these steps:
Mole-Mole Calculation
1. What is the concentration of sodium hydroxide required to react completely with equal
volume of 0.104 M sulfuric acid?
small
V = 2h
Ex 2.14
Mole - Mass
The relationship between the mass of a substance and the corresponding number of moles is governed
by the molar mass of the substance.

But, for problems involving substances in solution, we need to know the concentration of the solution
before we can find the number of moles.
Example 1
Example 2 : What mass of solid magnesium hydroxide can be produced if 45 mL of a 0.63 M Mg(NO3)2
solution reacts completely with excess NaOH?
Mass - Volume
What volume of 0.0995 M Al(NO3)3 will react with 3.66 g of Ag according to the following chemical
equation?
Ex 2.15
Mole - Volume Calculation

In this type of problem, the concentration of the solution is given, and you are asked to determine the
volume of the solution that contains a required number of moles or vice versa.
Example
Example: |What volume of a 0.35 M AgNO3 is required to react completely with 55mL of a 0.24 M NaCl
solution?

DESCRIBING REACTIONS IN SOLUTION
Competencies

● Explain the relationship between reacting ions, spectator ions, precipitation and solubility;
● write net ionic equations.
Molecular Equation
● Molecular equation is useful in describing the actual reactants and products, it does not give
any information about what is happening at the level of ions.
Ionic Equation
Consider the reaction of silver nitrate and sodium chloride.
● Both are soluble ionic substances and are strong electrolytes. When they dissolve in water, they go
into solution as ions giving on the reactant side of the reaction:

On the product side of the equation, AgCl(s) is an ionic compound that doesn’t dissolve
in water, but the ions are held together in particular sites in the crystalline solid. We
leave the formula as AgCl(s) to convey this information in the equation. On the other
hand, NaNO3 is a soluble ionic compound and is a strong electrolyte. Also it dissolves
in aqueous solution to give freely moving ions. Therefore, we can write it as
