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

In the laboratory a student finds that it takes 44.0 Joules to increase the temperature of 10.6 grams of solid zinc from 24.9 to
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The specific heat of zinc is 0.361 J/g°C

Explanation:

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

44.0 J needed

Mass of solid zinc = 10.6 grams

Initial temperature = 24.9 °C

Final temperature = 36.4 °C

<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate the specific heat of zinc

Q = m*c*ΔT

⇒ with Q = heat (in Joule) = 44.0 J

⇒ with m = the mass of the solid zinc = 10.6 grams

⇒ with c = the specific heat of the zinc = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with ΔT = The change in temperature = T2-T1 = 36.4 °C - 24.9 °C = 11.5 °C

44.0 J = 10.6 grams * c * 11.5°C

c = 44.0 J / (10.6g * 11.5 °C)

c = 0.361 J/g°C

The specific heat of zinc is 0.361 J/g°C

Which factors help you identify the solute and the solvent in a solution? Select all that apply. In a solution, the solvent is p
KatRina [158]

The answers would be:

In a solution, the solvent is present in a greater amount.

In a solutions, the solute dissolves in a solvent.

In general, these are the best answers. The solute is what is being dissolved and the solvent is what dissolves. A solvent comes in greater amounts in a solution and it is the dissolving agent.

For example, sugar and water.

To make a sugar water solution, you will need to dissolve sugar in water. Sugar is the solute in this case because it is what is being dissolved. The water is the solvent, because it dissolves the sugar.

If you had more sugar than water, then you cannot make a solution.
