An unknown amount of acid can often be determined by adding an excess of base and then back-titrating the excess. A 0.3471−g sam

ple of a mixture of oxalic acid, which has two ionizable protons, and benzoic acid, which has one, is treated with 97.0 mL of 0.1090 M NaOH. The excess NaOH is titrated with 21.00 mL of 0.2060 M HCl. Find the mass % of benzoic acid.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

       Mass of mixture = 0.3471 g

As the mixture contains oxalic acid and benzoic acid. So, oxalic acid will have two protons and benzoic acid has one proton.

This means oxalic acid will react with 2 moles of NaOH and benzoic acid will react with 1 mole of NaOH.

Hence,   moles of NaOH in 97 ml = \frac{0.1090 \times 97}{1000}

                                                       = 10.573 \times 10^{-3} mol

Moles of HCl in 21.00 ml = \frac{0.2060 \times 21}{1000}

                                         = 4.326 \times 10^{-3} mol

Therefore, total moles of NaOH that reacted are as follows.

           10.573 \times 10^{-3} mol - 4.326 \times 10^{-3} mol      

                = 6.247 \times 10^{-3} mol

So, total 3 mole of NaOH will react with 1 mole of mixture. Therefore, number of moles of NaOH reacted with benzoic acid is as follows.

                  \frac{6.247 \times 10^{-3}}{3}

                    = 2.082 \times 10^{-3} mol

Since, molar mass of NaOH is 40 g/mol. Therefore, calculate the mass of NaOH as follows.

                    2.082 \times 10^{-3} mol \times 40 g/mol

                         = 83.293 \times 10^{-3} g

                         = 0.0832 g

Whereas molar mass of benzoic acid is 122 g/mol.

Therefore,       40 g NaOH = 122 g benzoic acid

So,            0.0832 g NaOH = \frac{122 g}{40 g} \times 0.0832 g

                                             = 0.253 g

Hence, calculate the % mass of benzoic acid as follows.

                      \frac{0.253 g}{0.3471 g} \times 100

                           = 73.10%

Thus, we can conclude that mass % of benzoic acid is 73.10%.

How many valence electrons do the halogens possess? group of answer choices
jok3333 [9.3K]

The valence electron does the halogens possess are 7

  • Valence electrons are found in the outermost energy level of an atom
  • They are involved in the formation of chemical bonding with other atoms.
  • The halogens elements are found in group 17 on the periodic table
  • The halogens include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine.
  • They have seven valence electrons, so they are extremely reactive as they only need one more to fill their outer shell.
  • By octet rule we can say that the electron with 8 outer most shell is full and stable.

Hence the halogens posses 7 valence electron

Determine how many millilitres of a 4.25 M HCl solution are needed to react completely with 8.75 g CaCO3?
Helen [10]

Answer:

41 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Milliliter of HCl required = ?

Molarity of HCl solution = 4.25 M

Mass of CaCO₃ = 8.75 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2HCl + CaCO₃      →    CaCl₂ + CO₂ + H₂O

Number of moles of CaCO₃:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 8.75 g / 100.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.087 g /mol

Now we will compare the moles of  CaCO₃ with HCl.

                      CaCO₃         :          HCl

                          1               :            2

                      0.087           :         2/1×0.087 = 0.174 mol

Volume of HCl:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in L

4.25 M = 0.174 mol / volume in L

Volume in L = 0.174 mol /4.25 M

Volume in L = 0.041 L

Volume in mL:

0.041 L×1000 mL/ 1L

41 mL
