The acidic substance in vinegar is acetic acid, HC2H3O2. When 4.00 g of a certain vinegar sample was titrated with 0.200 M NaOH,

25.56 mL of base had to be added to reach the equivalence point. What percent by mass of this sample of vinegar is acetic acid?

Answer:

7.7%

Explanation:

the balanced equation for the neutralization reaction is:

CH3COOH+NaOH→CH3COONa+H2O

from the balanced equation above,the mole ratio of CH3COOH to NaOH is 1:1

no of mole of CH3COOH= no of mole of NaOH

no of mole of NaOH= concentration(M) × Volume(L)

=0.2 M× 0.02556=0.005112 mol

since, no of mole of CH3COOH= no of mole of NaOH

no of mole of CH3COOH=0.005112 mol

However ,no of mole =mass/molar mass

molar mass of CH3COOH=60.052g/mol

mass of CH3COOH=0.005112×60.052

=0.307g

percentage by mass of acetic acid in the vinegar=0.307/4

=0.07675×100%

=7.675%

Answer:

0.5188 M or 0.5188 mol/L

Explanation:

Concentration is calculated as <u>molarity</u>, which is the number of moles per litre.

***Molarity is represented by either "M" or "c" depending on your teacher. I will use "c".

The formula for molarity is:

$c = \frac{n}{V}$

n = moles (unit mol)

V = volume (unit L)

<u>Find the molar mass (M) of potassium hydroxide.</u>

$M_{KOH} = \frac{39.098 g}{mol}+\frac{16.000 g}{mol}+\frac{1.008 g}{mol}$

$M_{KOH} = 56.106 \frac{g}{mol}$

<u>Calculate the moles of potassium hydroxide.</u>

$n_{KOH} = \frac{14.555 g}{1}*\frac{1mol}{56.106g}$

$n_{KOH} = 0.25941(9)mol$

Carry one insignificant figure (shown in brackets).

<u>Convert the volume of water to litres.</u>

$V = \frac{500.0mL}{1}*\frac{1L}{1000mL}$

$V = 0.5000L$

Here, carrying an insignificant figure doesn't change the value.

<u>Calculate the concentration.</u>

$c = \frac{n}{V}$

$c = \frac{0.25941(9)mol}{0.5000 L}$

$c = 0.5188(3) \frac{mol}{L}$ <= Keep an insignificant figure for rounding

$c = 0.5188 \frac{mol}{L}$ <= Rounded up

$c = 0.5188M$ <= You use the unit "M" instead of "mol/L"

The concentration of this standard solution is 0.5188 M.

How do particles in a solid move?

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The particles in a solid vibrate in place.

Explanation:

The particles in a solid are close and tightly packed together so they have no room to flow past each other like the particles in a liquid can.

Hope this helps!

1. The solubility of lead(II) chloride at some high temperature is 3.1 x 10-2 M. Find the Ksp of PbCl2 at this temperature.

solniwko [45]

Answer:

1) The solubility product of the lead(II) chloride is $1.2\times 10^{-4}$ .

2) The solubility of the aluminium hydroxide is $1.6\times 10^{-10} M$ .

3)The given statement is false.

Explanation:

1)

Solubility of lead chloride = $S=3.1\times 10^-2M$

$PbCl_2(aq)\rightleftharpoons Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)$

S 2S

The solubility product of the lead(II) chloride = $K_{sp}$

$K_{sp}=[Pb^{2+}][Cl^-]^2$

$K_{sp}=S\times (2S)^2=4S^3=4\times (3.1\times 10^{-2})^3=1.2\times 10^{-4}$

The solubility product of the lead(II) chloride is $1.2\times 10^{-4}$ .

2)

Concentration of aluminium nitrate = 0.000010 M

Concentration of aluminum ion = $1\timed 0.000010 M=0.000010 M$

Solubility of aluminium hydroxide in aluminum nitrate solution = $S$

$Al(OH)_3(aq)\rightleftharpoons Al^{3+}(aq)+3OH^-(aq)$

S 3S

The solubility product of the aluminium nitrate = $K_{sp}=1.0\times 10^{-33}$

$K_{sp}=[Al^{3+}][OH^-]^3$

$1.0\times 10^{-33}=(0.000010+S)\times (3S)^3$

$S=1.6\times 10^{-10} M$

The solubility of the aluminium hydroxide is $1.6\times 10^{-10} M$ .

$Molarity=\frac{Moles}{Volume (L)}$

Mass of NaCl= 3.5 mg = 0.0035 g

1 mg = 0.001 g

Moles of NaCl = $\frac{0.0035 g}{58.5 g/mol}=6.0\times 10^{-5} mol$

Volume of the solution = 0.250 L

$[NaCl]=\frac{6.0\times 10^{-5} mol}{0.250 L}=0.00024 M$

1 mole of NaCl gives 1 mole of sodium ion and 1 mole of chloride ions.

$[Cl^-]=[NaCl]=0.00024 M$

Moles of lead (II) nitrate = n

Volume of the solution = 0.250 L

Molarity lead(II) nitrate = 0.12 M

$n=0.12 M]\times 0.250 L=0.030 mol$

1 mole of lead nitrate gives 1 mole of lead (II) ion and 2 moles of nitrate ions.

$[Pb^{2+}]=[Pb(NO_2)_3]=0.030 M$

$PbCl_2(aq)\rightleftharpoons Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)$

Solubility of lead(II) chloride = $K_{sp}=1.2\times 10^{-4}$

Ionic product of the lead chloride in solution :

$Q_i=[Pb^{2+}][Cl^-]^2=0.030 M\times (0.00024 M)^2=1.7\times 10^{-9}$

$Q_i$ ( no precipitation)

The given statement is false.
