Answer:
pH of the solution will slightly increase as it becomes less acidic for which it turns out to be more diluted.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to calculate the pH change of the solution by firstly calculating the HCl concentration, as equal to that of the hydrogen ions whose pH is 2 as this is a strong acid:
![[HCl]=[H^+]=10^{-pH}=10^{-2}=0.01M\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BHCl%5D%3D%5BH%5E%2B%5D%3D10%5E%7B-pH%7D%3D10%5E%7B-2%7D%3D0.01M%5C%5C)
Now, since water is added to the solution, but we do not have the initial volume of this solution, we can ensure that its pH will increase, become less acidic, because the concentration of the acid, and consequently that of the hydrogen ions, is diminished as the volume is increased.
Best regards!
Answer:
1) 18.91 mL
2) 2.35 %
Explanation:
1. The volume of base that was required is equal to the <em>difference between the reading at the end of the titration and the reading at the beginning</em>:
- V = 20.95 mL - 2.04 mL = 18.91 mL
2. The mass percent can be written as:
- Mass Percent = Mass solute / Total mass * 100%
For this problem:
We<u> input the data and calculate the mass percent</u>:
- % mass = 2.28/96.92 * 100% = 2.35 %
The mass of sodium sulfite that was used will be 1,890 grams.
<h3>Stoichiometric problems</h3>
First, the equation of the reaction:

The mole ratio of SO2 produced and sodium sulfite that reacted is 1:1.
Mole of 960 grams SO2 = 960/64 = 15 moles
Equivalent mole of sodium sulfite that reacted = 15 moles
Mass of 15 moles sodium sulfite = 15 x 126 = 1,890 grams
