In order to find out the %mass dolomite in the soil,
calculate for the mass of dolomite using the information given from the
titration procedure. You would need to multiply 57.85 ml with 0.3315 M HCl and
you would get the amount of HCl in millimoles. Then multiply the amount of HCl
with 1/2 (given that for every 1 mol of dolomite, 2 mol of HCl would be
needed). Convert the amount of dolomite to mass by multiplying the millimoles
with the molecular weight which is 184.399. Then convert the mass to grams
which is 1.768 grams. Divide the mass of dolomite (1.768 grams) with the weight
of soil sample. The % mass is 7.17.
he required empirical formula based on the data provided is Na2CO3.H2O.
<h3>What is empirical formula?</h3>
The term empirical formula refers to the formula of a compound which shows the ratio of each specie present.
We have the following;
Mass of sodium = 37.07-g
Mass of carbonate = 48.39 g
Mass of water = 14.54-g
Number of moles of sodium = 37.07-g/23 g/mol = 2 moles
Number of moles of carbonate = 48.39 g/61 g/mol = 1 mole
Number of moles of water = 14.54/18 g/mol = 1 mole
The mole ratio is 2 : 1: 1
Hence, the required empirical formula is Na2CO3.H2O

What's the problem ? Hardness is not the definition of a metal.
You need to expand your thinking. EVERY element is solid, liquid, and gas, over different ranges of temperature ... including all of the metals. There are only TWO elements that are liquid AT ROOM TEMPERATURE, and mercury is one of them. But on a mild day at the south pole, mercury is solid too.
