<h2>Answer with Explanation </h2>

Petroleum refining or Oil refining is a manufacturing method in which crude oil is removed from the ground, molded and purified into valuable products like Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), kerosene, asphalt base, jet fuel, gasoline, heating oil, fuel oils etc. Crude Oil contains hydrocarbon molecules. Refining Petroleum refining relates to the method of transforming crude oil into useful products. Crude oil is made of hundreds of various hydrocarbon molecules, which are distributed by the method of refining.

2. Suppose that 21.37 mL of NaOH is needed to titrate 10.00 mL of 0.1450 M H2SO4 solution.
AysviL [449]

Answer:

0.1357 M

Explanation:

(a) The balanced reaction is shown below as:

2NaOH+H_2SO_4\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+2H_2O

(b) Moles of H_2SO_4 can be calculated as:

Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Or,

Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Given :

For H_2SO_4 :

Molarity = 0.1450 M

Volume = 10.00 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 10×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of H_2SO_4 :

Moles=0.1450 \times {10\times 10^{-3}}\ moles

Moles of H_2SO_4  = 0.00145 moles

From the reaction,

1 mole of H_2SO_4 react with 2 moles of NaOH

0.00145 mole of H_2SO_4 react with 2*0.00145 mole of NaOH

Moles of NaOH = 0.0029 moles

Volume = 21.37 mL = 21.37×10⁻³ L

Molarity = Moles / Volume = 0.0029 /  21.37×10⁻³  M = 0.1357 M
