If the buret is dirty, it will react with the NaOH in the buret and will cause your concentration to be off.
A gardener can fix acidic soil by adding lime over time.
Answer:
32.5g of sodium carbonate
Explanation:
Reaction of sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃) with Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺ as follows:
Na₂CO₃(aq) + Ca²⁺(aq) → CaCO₃(s)
Na₂CO₃(aq) + Mg²⁺(aq) → MgCO₃(s)
<em>1 mole of carbonate reacts per mole of the cations.</em>
<em />
To know the mass of sodium carbonate we must know the moles of carbonate we need to add based on the moles of the cations:
<em>Moles Mg²⁺:</em>
2.91L * (0.0661 moles MgCl₂ / 1L) = 0.192 moles MgCl₂ = Moles Mg²⁺
<em>Moles Ca²⁺:</em>
2.91L * (0.0396mol Ca(NO₃)₂ / 1L) = 0.115 moles Ca(NO₃)₂ = Moles Ca²⁺
That means moles of sodium carbonate you must add are:
0.192 moles + 0.115 moles = 0.307 moles sodium carbonate.
In grams (Using molar mass Na₂CO₃ = 105.99g/mol):
0.307 moles Na₂CO₃ * (105.99g / mol) =
<h3>32.5g of sodium carbonate</h3>
