The volume (in mL) of 0.242 M NaOH solution needed for the titration reaction is 39.44 mL
<h3>Balanced equation </h3>
CH₃CH₂COOH + NaOH —> CH₃CH₂COONa + H₂O
From the balanced equation above,
- The mole ratio of the acid, CH₃CH₂COOH (nA) = 1
- The mole ratio of the base, NaOH (nB) = 1
<h3>How to determine the volume of NaOH</h3>
- Volume of acid, CH₃CH₂COOH (Va) = 46.79 mL
- Molarity of acid, CH₃CH₂COOH (Ma) = 0.204 M
- Molarity of base, NaOH (Mb) = 0.242 M
- Volume of base, KOH (Vb) =?
MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB
(0.204 × 46.79) / (0.242 × Vb) = 1
Cross multiply
0.242 × Vb = 0.204 × 46.79
Divide both side by 0.242
Vb = (0.204 × 46.79) / 0.242
Vb = 39.44 mL
Thus, the volume of NaOH needed for the reaction is 39.44 mL

The standard Gibbs free energy of formation of ZnO from Zn is lower than that of CO2 from CO. Therefore, CO cannot reduce ZnO to Zn. Hence, Zn is not extracted from ZnO through reduction using CO
