Answer:
6 grains
Explanation:
The equation of the reaction between NaOH and aspirin is;
C9H8O4(aq) + NaOH (aq) ------>C9H7O4Na(aq) + H2O(l)
Amount of NaOH reacted = concentration × volume = 0.1466 M × 14.40/1000 L = 2.11 × 10^-3 moles
Given that aspirin and NaOH react in a mole ratio of 1:1 from the balanced reaction equation above, the number of moles of aspirin reacted is 2.11 × 10^-3 moles
Hence mass of aspirin reacted = 2.11 × 10^-3 moles × 180.2 g/mol = 0.38 g
If 1 grain = 0.0648 g
x grains = 0.38 g
x= 0.38 g/0.0648 g
x= 6 grains
Answer: B (to provide a statement that can be tested with an experiment
True, is the correct answer.
Answer:
20 mL OF 6 M HYDROCHLORIC ACID WILL BE NEEDED
Explanation:
M1 V1 = M2 V2
M1 = Molarity of sodium hydroxide = 3 M
V1 = volume of sodium hydroxide = 40 mL
M2 = Molarity of hydrochloric acid = 6 M
V2 = Volume of hydrochloric acid = unknown
Rearranging the equation, we have:
V2 = M1 V1 / M2
V2 = 3 * 40 mL / 6
V2 = 120 / 6
V2 = 20 mL
To precipitate the benzoic acid by 6 M of hydrochloric acid, 20 mL volume will be needed.
