Instead of using ratios for back titrations we can also use molarities, if our solutions are standardized. A 0.196 g sample of a

ntacid containing an unknown amount of triprotic base Al(OH)3 was reacted with 25.0mL of 0.111M HCl. The resulting solution was then titrated with 11.05mL of 0.132M NaOH solution. Calculate the mass percent of Al(OH)3 in the antacid sample.

Answer:

The mass percent of Al(OH)₃ is 15.3%

Explanation:

The reaction is:

Al(OH)₃ + 3HCl = AlCl₃ + 3H₂O

The excess acid is neutralized with a solution of sodium hidroxide, in the reaction:

NaOH + HCl = NaCl + H₂O

The total moles of HCl is:

n_{HCl,total} =M_{HCl} *V_{HCl} =0.111*0.025=2.78x10^{-3} moles

From the second titration, the moles of excess of HCl is:

n_{HCl,excess} =n_{NaOH} =M_{NaOH} *V_{NaOH} =0.132*0.01105=1.46x10^{-3} moles

The difference between the total and excess of HCl, it can be know the moles that reacts with the aluminum hydroxide, is:

n_{HCl,reacts} =n_{HCl,total}-n_{HCl,excess} =2.78x10^{-3} moles-1.46x10^{-3} moles=1.32x10^{-3} moles

The ratio between HCl and Al(OH)₃ is 3:1. The MW for aluminum hydroxide is 78 g/mol, thus:

m_{Al(OH)3} =1.32x10^{-3} molesHCl*\frac{1molAl(OH)3}{3molesHCl} *\frac{78gAl(OH)3}{1molAl(OH)3} =0.03g

The percentage of Al(OH)₃ is:

Percentage-Al(OH)3=\frac{m_{Al(OH)3} }{m_{antiacid} } *100=\frac{0.03}{0.196} =15.3%

Calculate the freezing point of a solution containing 5.0 grams of KCl and 550.0 grams of water. The molal-freezing-point-depres
yulyashka [42]

<u>Answer:</u> The freezing point of solution is -0.454°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Depression in freezing point is defined as the difference in the freezing point of pure solution and freezing point of solution.

The equation used to calculate depression in freezing point follows:

\Delta T_f=\text{Freezing point of pure solution}-\text{Freezing point of solution}

To calculate the depression in freezing point, we use the equation:

\Delta T_f=iK_fm

Or,

\text{Freezing point of pure solution}-\text{Freezing point of solution}=i\times K_f\times \frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}

where,

Freezing point of pure solution = 0°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 2

K_f = molal freezing point elevation constant = 1.86°C/m

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute (KCl) = 5.0 g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute (KCl) = 74.55 g/mol

W_{solvent} = Mass of solvent (water) = 550.0 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0-\text{Freezing point of solution}=2\times 1.86^oC/m\times \frac{5\times 1000}{74.55g/mol\times 550}\\\\\text{Freezing point of solution}=-0.454^oC

Hence, the freezing point of solution is -0.454°C

2. What group is Ballardium located? (Bu) *
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

This question appears incomplete

Explanation:

There is no such element known as "Ballardium (Bu)" in the periodic table. However, there are elements with a bit of similarity in spellings and pronunciation such as Beryllium (Be) which is found in group 2 (meaning it is an alkali earth metal), Berkelium (Bk) which is an actinide (meaning it is radioactive) and Vanadium (V) which is found in group 5 of the periodic table (meaning it's a transition metal).

Reasoning you used to decide if something was made of molecules.​
sasho [114]

Answer:

Whether something is a molecule or not depends on the type of bond that is formed when its atoms join together. In general, electrons can be shared between atoms (a molecular bond) or electrons can be completely removed from one atom and given to another (an ionic bond). Molecules have molecular bonds.
