Calculate amounts for dilutions.
Calculation should include
- defining solute and solvent
- describing how to calculate and prepare a dilution in terms of the relationship between solute and solvent (e.g., 1:3)
- describing how to calculate a percent concentration
- calculating amounts for selected dilutions to a teacher-specified degree of accuracy.
Process/Skill Questions:
- What operations are required to complete advanced mathematical calculations?
- Why are conversion operations necessary for completing these calculations?
- How many ounces of the chemical will be used to create 1 quart of a substance that requires a dilution ratio of 1:3?
