Answer:
6.69%
Explanation:
Given that:
Mass of the fertilizer = 0.568 g
The mass of HCl used in titration (45.2 mL of 0.192 M)
=
= 0.313 g HCl
The amount of NaOH used for the titration of excess HCl (42.4 mL of 0.133M)
=
= 0.0058919 mole of NaOH
From the neutralization reaction; number of moles of HCl is equal with the number of moles of NaOH is needed to complete the neutralization process
Thus; amount of HCl neutralized by 0.0058919 mole of NaOH = 0.0058919 × 36.5 g
= 0.2151 g HCl
From above ; the total amount of HCl used = 0.313 g
The total amount that is used for complete neutralization = 0.2151 g
∴ The amount of HCl reacted with NH₃ = (0.313 - 0.2151)g
= 0.0979 g
We all know that 1 mole of NH₃ = 17.0 g , which requires 1 mole of HCl = 36.5 g
Now; the amount of HCl neutralized by 0.0979 HCl =
= 0.0456 g
Therefore, the mass of nitrogen present in the fertilizer is:
=
= 0.038 g
∴ Mass percentage of Nitrogen in the fertilizer = %
= 6.69%
