Question

If 0.8675 g of KHP requires 24.56 mL of an NaOH solution to reach the equivalence

Answer 1

Answer:

$M_{base}=0.173M$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the titration of acids like KHP with bases like NaOH are performed in a 1:1 mole ratio, it is possible for us to know that their moles are the same at the equivalence point, and the concentration, volume and moles are related as follows:

$n_{acid}=M_{base}V_{base}$

Thus, by solving for the volume of the base as NaOH, we obtain:

$M_{base}=\frac{n_{acid}}{V_{base}} \\\\M_{base}=\frac{0.8675g*\frac{1mol}{204.22g} }{0.02456L} \\\\M_{base}=0.173M$

Best regards!
