Answer:

in reading volume - you read from the bottom of the meniscus, which is the curve formed from the liquid in the graduated cylinder. Most graduated cylinders are in ml, so measure in the most accurate reading.

A student reacts 20.0 mL of 0.248 M H2SO4 with 15.0 mL of 0.195 M NaOH. Write a balanced chemical equation to show this reaction

Molodets [167]

Answer: The concentration of salt (sodium sulfate), sulfuric acid and NaOH in the solution is 0.0418 M, 0.0999 M and 0 M respectively.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$ .....(1)

For NaOH:

Initial molarity of NaOH solution = 0.195 M

Volume of solution = 15.0 mL = 0.015 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.195M=\frac{\text{Moles of NaOH}}{0.015L}\\\\\text{Moles of NaOH}=(0.195mol/L\times 0.015L)=2.925\times 10^{-3}mol$

For sulfuric acid:

Initial molarity of sulfuric acid solution = 0.248 M

Volume of solution = 20.0 mL = 0.020 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.248M=\frac{\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4}{0.020L}\\\\\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=(0.248mol/L\times 0.020L)=4.96\times 10^{-3}mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and sulfuric acid follows:

$2NaOH+H_2SO_4\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+2H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of sulfuric acid

So, $2.925\times 10^{-3}$ moles of KOH will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 2.925\times 10^{-3}=1.462\times 10^{-3}mol$ of sulfuric acid

As, given amount of sulfuric acid is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, NaOH is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

Excess moles of sulfuric acid = $(4.96-1.462)\times 10^{-3}=3.498\times 10^{-3}mol$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of KOH produces 1 mole of sodium sulfate

So, $2.925\times 10^{-3}$ moles of KOH will produce = $\frac{1}{2}\times 2.925\times 10^{-3}=1.462\times 10^{-3}mol$ of sodium sulfate

For sodium sulfate:

Moles of sodium sulfate = $1.462\times 10^{-3}moles$

Volume of solution = [15.0 + 20.0] = 35.0 mL = 0.035 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Molarity of sodium sulfate}=\frac{1.462\times 10^{-3}}{0.035}=0.0418M$

For sulfuric acid:

Moles of excess sulfuric acid = $3.498\times 10^{-3}mol$

Volume of solution = [15.0 + 20.0] = 35.0 mL = 0.035 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Molarity of sulfuric acid}=\frac{3.498\times 10^{-3}}{0.035}=0.0999M$

For NaOH:

Moles of NaOH remained = 0 moles

Volume of solution = [15.0 + 20.0] = 35.0 mL = 0.035 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Molarity of NaOH}=\frac{0}{0.050}=0M$

Hence, the concentration of salt (sodium sulfate), sulfuric acid and NaOH in the solution is 0.0418 M, 0.0999 M and 0 M respectively.
