Solution

Strength or concentration:

  • The strength of the solution is defined as the amount of solute in gram dissolved per liter of the solution.
  • It represents the strength or concentration of the solution.
  • It expresses in grams per liter.
  • For example, suppose 10 g of glucose (solute) is present in 1 L of solution, then the strength or concentration of the solution is 10 g/L.
  • We can express the concentration of the solution in many ways like molarity, normality, molality, mole fraction, formality, and parts per million.

Mathematically:

Strengthofsolution=Massofsolute(g)Volumeofsolution(L)
