How do I calculate the concentration of a solution?

AI Thread Summary
To calculate the concentration of a solution, you need to determine the amount of solute and the volume of solvent. The concentration can be expressed in various units, such as molarity (moles of solute per liter of solution) or mass/volume percentage. For example, to prepare a cyanide solution, you would calculate the desired concentration and then measure the appropriate amount of cyanide to mix with a specific volume of water. It's essential to ensure accurate measurements and follow safety protocols when handling hazardous substances. Understanding these calculations is crucial for successful research outcomes.

Hello!.. I would like to ask something.

How should I calculate the concentration of a solution?or how to set (by the use of calculation) concentration of a solution.

We are about to start our research and we are assigned to set up concentration of a solution but we don't know to do it. We want to set-up the concentration of cyanide that will be mixed to the water in order to have the solution.

I know that you can help us. Thank you!

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...

Thread 'How to find the pH of a galvanic cell (MIT OCW problem set)'

This is the final problem in this problem set from MIT OCW. Here is what I did to try to solve it The table cited in the problem is below We can easily spot the two redox couples that are in the electrochemical cell we are given. The hydrogen-based electrode has standard potential zero, and the silver-based electrode has standard potential 0.22. Thus, the hydrogen electrode, with the lower potential, is the reducing agent (ie, it is where oxidation happens) and is the anode. Electrons...
