S + O2 → SO2 
<span>z / (32.0655 g S/mol) x (1 mol SO2 / 1 mol S) x (64.0638 g SO2/mol) = (1.9979 z) g SO2 </span>

<span>C + O2 → CO2 </span>
<span>(9.0-z) / (12.01078 g C/mol) x (1 mol CO2 / 1 mol C) x (44.00964 g CO2/mol) = (32.9776 - 3.66418 z) g CO2 </span>

<span>Add the two masses of SO2 and CO2 and set them equal to the amount given in the problem: </span>
<span>(1.9979 z) + (32.9776 - 3.66418 z) = 27.9 </span>
<span>Solve for z algebraically: </span>
<span>z = 3.0 g S</span>

Why do we need to standardize EDTA in determination of water hardness?​
bonufazy [111]
Standardized means that a specific amount EDTA is added to a specific volume of distilled water. Water hardness is determined by the the amount of a standard EDTA solution to change the color of the water from red to blue. For example if one added the correct amount of EDTA to twice the volume of distilled water the solution would be weak. Titration of the hard water would give a erroneous high result.
