Measuring the concentration of a solution
Concentration of a solution can be measured in two ways:
grams per cubic decimetre (litre)
- gdm-3
- moldm-3
C=n
v

Calculate the mass of calcium carbonate which could be formed when 100dm3 of
0.002 moldm-3 Ca(HCO3)2 decomposes.
(2) Lime scale (CaCO3) can be removed from electric kettles by reacting it with
dilute ethanoic acid. The equation for this reaction is as follows:
CaCO3 (s) + 2CH3COOH (aq)
