Why must the sodium hydroxide solution be standardized before use? Why can’t a solution of known concentration just be prepared

immediately before use?

Answer:

It is a highly hygroscopic material so it could have water inside even when solid.

Explanation:

Hello,

It turns out that sodium hydroxide is a highly hygroscopic material, it means that it is able to catch as much water as it can from the environment and subsequently attach it to its structure even when solid, that is why a simple weight by a balance is not enough to determine the exact weight of a pure sodium hydroxide sample. Consequently, a strict standardization must be performed before its usage, since an error in the sodium hydroxide's concentration could be exhibited due to the misestimation.

Best regards.

Sodium hydroxide is deliquescent (absorbs moisture from the atmosphere) solid. It cannot be weighed accurately. Therefore, it is not possible to prepare a standard solution of sodium hydroxide of accurately known concentration by weighing NaOH.

Question 7 of 32
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The primary type of energy change which occurs by turning on the phone will be the conversion of the stored chemical energy of the battery into electrical energy. The chemical energy is also converted into light energy, sound energy and heat energy. With the passage of time, the energy will be changed back into the chemical energy when we will charge the phone again.
