Answer:
a. 52.8
Explanation:
To find the number of moles of HCl we use the relation M₁V₁=M₂V₂
where M₁ is the initial molarity, M₂ the new molarity, V₁ the initial volume used, and V₂ the final volume obtained.
M₁=7.91 M
M₂=2.13 M
V₁=?
V₂=196.1 mL
Replacing these values in the relationship.
M₁V₁=M₂V₂
7.91 M× V₁=2.13 M×196.1 mL
V₁=(2.13 M×196.1 mL)/7.91 M
=52.8 mL
Hi!
When titrating Calcium and Water solution, if there is some CaCO3 in the solution, the following reactions may occur in acid solution:
CaCO₃ + H⁺ → Ca⁺² + HCO₃⁻
HCO₃⁻ + H⁺ ↔ H₂CO₃ → CO₂ (g) + H₂O
The bubbles are from CO₂ that is being developed from an acidic solution of CaCO₃
HCl = 1 + 35.5 => 36.5 g/mol
hope this helps!
