SOLUTIONS

• Use different ways of expressing concentration of solutions:


percent by mass, percent by volume, mole fraction,
molarity, molality, ppm, ppb;
• Describe the effect of concentration on the colligative
properties of solutions;
• Differentiate the colligative properties of nonelectrolyte
solutions and of electrolyte solutions; and
• Calculate boiling point elevation and freezing point
depression from the concentration of a solute in a solution.
