This technique can be used to make pure crystals of a soluble salt.
The burette is filled with hydrochloric acid.
A known quantity of alkali (say 50 cm3 sodium hydroxide)
is released from a pipette into the conical flask.
The tap on the burette is turned open to allow
the acid to be added drop by drop into the alkali.
The alkali contains an indicator (phenolphthalein)
which is pink in an alkali and colorless in an <span>acid.
</span>
When enough acid has been added to neutralize
the alkali, the indicator changes from
pink to colorless. This is the end point of the titration.
The titration<span> can be repeated using the </span><span>same amounts
</span><span>of </span>acid<span> and </span>alkali<span> but </span>without<span> the </span>indicator.
<span>Pure salt</span> crystals<span> which are </span>free<span> from </span><span>indicator
</span><span>can then be crystallized </span><span> from the </span>neutral<span> solution.</span>
This is my theory of the answer
Answer:
it contains 2.56 x 10^15.
Explanation:
given no. of moles = 4.26 x 10^-9 atoms
one mole has 6.022 x 10^23 atoms
so it contains 4.26 x 10^-9 x 6.022 x 10^23 atoms
(If we suppose silver's atomic weight as 108.)
Its D. 13-14 billion years
