A chemistry student needs to standardize a fresh solution of sodium hydroxide. She carefully weighs out 385.mg of oxalic acid H2

C2O4, a diprotic acid that can be purchased inexpensively in high purity and dissolves it in 250.mL of distilled water. The student then titrates the oxalic acid solution with her sodium hydroxide solution. When the titration reaches the equivalence point, the student finds she has used 123.7mL of sodium hydroxide solution. Calculate the molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide solution.

Answer:

The molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution is 0.0692 M

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of H2C2O4 = 385 mg = 0.385 grams

volume = 250 mL = 0.250 L

Volume of NaOH = 123.7 mL = 0.1237 L

Molar mass H2C2O4 = 90.03 g/mol

<u>Step 2</u>: The balanced equation

2NaOH + H2C2O4 → Na2C2O4 + 2H2O

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate moles H2C2O4

Moles H2C2O4 = mass H2C2O4 / molar mass H2C2O4

Moles H2C2O4 = 0.385 grams / 90.03 g/mol

Moles H2C2O4 = 0.00428 moles

<u>Step 4: </u>Calculate molarity of H2C2O4

Molarity H2C2O4 = moles / volume

Molarity H2C2O4 = 0.00428 moles / 0.250 L

Molarity H2C2O4 = 0.01712 M

<u>Step 5:</u> Calculate molarity of NaOH

2*Ca*Va = n*Cb*Vb

⇒ with Ca = Molarity of H2C2O4 = 0.01712 M

⇒ Va = volume of H2C2O4 = 0.250 L

⇒Cb = molarity of NaOH = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ Vb = volume of NaOH = 0.1237 L

Cb = (2*0.01712*0.250)/0.1237

Cb = 0.0691 M

The molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution is 0.0692 M

How is an isotope different from the standard form of a chemical element?
velikii [3]

Answer:

  • The standard form of a chemical element is the natural mixture of several isotopes of the same element, which is atoms with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons, while an isotope is a particular kind of atom with a definite number of neutrons.

Explanation:

A <em>chemical element</em> is a pure substance formed by atoms with the same atomic number (number of protons). This is because it is the number of protons what identifies an element.

For example: oxygen is a chemical element, so oxygen is formed by only atoms of oxygen, and the atomic number of those atoms is 8, because every oxygen atom has 8 protons.

Nevertheless, some atoms of oxygen, may have different number of neutrons. Isotopes are different kind of atoms of the same element, which only differ in the number of neutrons. So, some atoms of oxygen will have 8 neutrons, other 9 neutrons, and other 10 neutrons (those are the stable isotopes of oxygen).

That difference in neutrons, is generally accepted that, does not modifiy substantially the chemical properties of the element, but the mass number. So, the isotopes with more neutrons wil be heavier, and the isotopes with less neutrons will be lighter.

  • Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons.

In general a chemical element is formed by a mixutre of isotopes of the same element.

Balance the following redox equation using the smallest integers possible and select the correct coefficient for the hydrogen su
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Coefficient of HSO_{3}^{-} is 5

Explanation:

Oxidation: MnO_{4}^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Mn^{2+}(aq)

  • Balance O and H in acidic medium: MnO_{4}^{-}(aq)+8H^{+}(aq)\rightarrow Mn^{2+}(aq)+4H_{2}O(l)
  • Balance charge : MnO_{4}^{-}(aq)+8H^{+}(aq)+5e^{-}\rightarrow Mn^{2+}(aq)+4H_{2}O(l) .............(1)

Reduction: HSO_{3}^{-}\rightarrow SO_{4}^{2-}

  • Balance O and H in acidic medium : HSO_{3}^{-}(aq)+H_{2}O(l)\rightarrow SO_{4}^{2-}(aq)+3H^{+}(aq)
  • Balance charge : HSO_{3}^{-}(aq)+H_{2}O(l)-2e^{-}\rightarrow SO_{4}^{2-}(aq)+3H^{+}(aq) ..............(2)

[2\times eq(1)]+[5\times eq(2)] -

Balanced equation: 2MnO_{4}^{-}(aq)+5HSO_{3}^{-}(aq)+H^{+}(aq)\rightarrow 2Mn^{2+}(aq)+5SO_{4}^{2-}(aq)+3H_{2}O(l)

Coefficient of HSO_{3}^{-} is 5

Blance equation __CaBr2 (aq) + ___Li3PO4(aq) → ___Ca3(PO4)2(s) + ____LiBr (aq)
QveST [7]

Answer:

3CaBr2 + 2LI3PO4 - > Ca3(PO4) 2 + 6LiBr

Explanation:

The first one I did was PO4. There are two on the right side, so I added 2 to Li3PO4 on the other side. That balanced the PO4s and then gave me 6 Lithiums so I balanced that one next on the right side. I added 6 to LiBr which balanced the Li but then gave me 6 Br, so I finished it off by adding 3 in front of CaBr2 which balanced the calcium and bromines.

Here was the process:

CaBr2+2Li3PO4 -> Ca3(PO4)2+LiBr

Balances PO4 (2on both sides)

CaBr2+2Li3PO4 -> Ca3(PO4)2+6LiBr

Balances Lithiums (6 on each side)

3CaBr2+2Li3PO4 -> Ca3(PO4)2+6LiBr

Balances Calciums and Bromines (3 Calciums and 6 Bromines each side)

Hope this helped!
