1.062 mol/kg.
<em>Step 1</em>. Write the balanced equation for the neutralization.
MM = 204.22 40.00
KHC8H4O4 + NaOH → KNaC8H4O4 + H2O
<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the moles of potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP)
Moles of KHP = 824 mg KHP × (1 mmol KHP/204.22 mg KHP)
= 4.035 mmol KHP
<em>Step 3</em>. Calculate the moles of NaOH
Moles of NaOH = 4.035 mmol KHP × (1 mmol NaOH/(1 mmol KHP)
= 4.035 mmol NaOH
<em>Step 4</em>. Calculate the mass of the NaOH
Mass of NaOH = 4.035 mmol NaOH × (40.00 mg NaOH/1 mmol NaOH)
= 161 mg NaOH
<em>Step 5</em>. Calculate the mass of the water
Mass of water = mass of solution – mass of NaOH = 38.134 g - 0.161 g
= 37.973 g
<em>Step 6</em>. Calculate the molal concentration of the NaOH
<em>b</em> = moles of NaOH/kg of water = 0.040 35 mol/0.037 973 kg = 1.062 mol/kg
Answer:

Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to tell that since the total mass is 16.50 g and 5.87 g correspond to nickel, then the mass of oxygen is:

And therefore, the resulting percent composition turns out to be:

Soaps work in soft water. However, they are not effective in hard water. In contrast, synthetic detergents work both in soft water and hard water. Therefore, synthetic detergents are better than soaps.
