A 3.452 g sample containing an unknown amount of a Ce(IV) salt is dissolved in 250.0-mL of 1 M H2SO4. A 25.00 mL aliquot is anal

yzed by adding KI and titrating the I3– that forms with S2O32–. The end point was reached following the addition of 13.02 mL of 0.03428 M Na2S2O3. Calculate the weight percent of Ce4 in the sample.When should the indicator be added to this titration? (at the beginning or just before the end point?)

Answer:

1,812 wt%

Explanation:

The reactions for this titration are:

2Ce⁴⁺ + 3I⁻ → 2Ce³⁺ + I₃⁻

I₃⁻ + 2S₂O₃⁻ → 3I⁻ + S₄O₆²⁻

The moles in the end point of S₂O₃⁻ are:

0,01302L×0,03428M Na₂S₂O₃ = 4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of S₂O₃⁻. As 2 moles of S₂O₃⁻ react with 1 mole of I₃⁻, the moles of I₃⁻ are:

4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of S₂O₃⁻×\frac{1molI_{3}^-}{2molS_{2}O_{3}^-} = 2,2315x10⁻⁴ moles of I₃⁻

As 2 moles of Ce⁴⁺ produce 1 mole of I₃⁻, the moles of Ce⁴⁺ are:

2,2315x10⁻⁴ moles of I₃⁻×\frac{2molCe^{4+}}{1molI_{3}^-} = 4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of Ce(IV). These moles are:

4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of Ce(IV)×\frac{140,116g}{1mol} = <em>0,0625 g of Ce(IV)</em>

As the sample has a 3,452g, the weight percent is:

0,0625g of Ce(IV) / 3,452g × 100 = <em>1,812 wt%</em>

I hope it helps!

Explain why the benzene molecule usually reacts with electrophiles<br>​
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Explanation:Because of the delocalised electrons exposed above and below the plane of the rest of the molecule, benzene is obviously going to be highly attractive to electrophiles - species which seek after electron rich areas in other molecules.

Why did you have to remove co2 from your partially neutralized stomach acid before the titration?
shutvik [7]

Answer is: carbon dioxide (CO₂) can affect the end point of the titration.

Carbon dioxide, or carbon(IV) oxide, reacts with water and form carbonic acid, which can affect the end point of the titration, because more base is needed for neutralization of partially neutralized stomach acid.

Balanced chemical reaction of carbon dioxide and water: CO₂ + H₂O → H₂CO₃.
