Worksheet Name:
You have 100 ml of a solution that is 150 ppt in concentration and you need 300 ml for the final volume. What will the ending concentration be?
VBegin
X
CBegin = CEnd
VEnd
VBegin = 100 ml
CBegin = 150 ppt
VEnd = 300 ml
Multiply 100 x 150 = 15,000
Divide 15,000 / 300 = CEnd
CEnd =
Next you have 80 ml of a solution that is 120 ppt. You need a solution that is 10 ppt. you start by pouring 10 ml into a 100 ml graduated cylinder. How much distilled water will you need to add to get 10 ppt?
VBegin
X
CBegin = VEnd
CEnd
VBegin =
CBegin =
CEnd =
VEnd =
These are easy.
Now you have a solution that is 180 ppt and you need to end with exactly 70 ml of a solution that is 35 ppt. How much of the 180 ppt solution should you start with?
CBegin
= VEnd
X CEnd
VBegin
VBegin =
CBegin =
CEnd =
