This
is a neutralization, which means we are mixing a base with an acid until the
mixture becomes neutral. We add more HI to the NaOH until the number of acid
equivalents is equal to the number of base equivalents. We can calculate the
acid equivalents using normality and volume, and the same with base equivalents.
A =
acid equivalents = normality*volume (in the acid solution)
B =
base equivalents = normality*volumen (in the base solution)
A =
B
NA*VA
= NB*VB
HI
is an acid which releases only 1 acid equivalent per molecule, so its molarity
is equal to its normality.
NaOH
is a base which releases only 1 base equivalent per formula unit, so its
molarity is equal to its normality.
MA*VA
= MB*VB
We’re
trying to find out NaOH molarity, which is equal to the NaOH normality.
MB
= MA*VA/VB
DATA:
MA
= 3.0 M
<span>The
volumen of HI used can be calculated by subtracting the
final volume of the burette to its initial volume (the final volume is smaller,
as we have taken some volume away)</span>
VA
= V0-Vf = 0.7 ml - 0.2 ml = 0.5 ml
VB
= V0-Vf = 47.6 ml - 37.5 ml = 10.1 ml
MB
= 3.0M*0.5M/10.1M = 0.149 M
Optimization helps you make better choices when you have all the data, and simulation helps you understand the possible outcomes when you don’t. Frontline Solvers enable you to combine these analytic methods, so you can make better choices for decisions you do control, taking into account the range of potential outcomes for factors you don’t control.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Meters squared would be a good unit of measurement for Sanjeev's purposes.
