Answer:
Explanation:
Given parameters:
number of moles magnesium = 6.80mol
number of moles of chlorine = 13.56mol
To find the complete chemical formula, we should obtain the formula of the compound.
Mg Cl
Number of
moles 6.8 13.56
Dividing
by the smallest 6.8/6.8 13.56/6.8
1 2
The formula of the compound is MgCl₂
This is an ionic compound in which Magnesium loses two electrons that would be gained by Cl atoms requiring just an electron each to complete their octet.
The initial concentration of the unknown acid is 0.1900 M.
Explanation:
Titration is a chemical method of analysis to know the concentration and volume of the unknown chemical or analyte.
The formula for the titration is:
Macid x Vacid = Mbase x V base
The volume must be in litres. The volume is given in ml it should be divided with 1000 to obtain values in litre.
Data given are:
volume of acid= 10 ml 0.01 L
Molarity of the acid = ?
volume of the NaOH or base = 15.4 ml or 0.0154 L (equivalence point of the base)
molarity of the base = 0.1234 M
Applying the formula and putting the values, we get
Macid x 0.01 = 0.1234 x 0.0154
Macid = 0.1900 M
The weak acid is having molarity of 0.1900 M against the strong base with molarity of 0.1234M.
