A 10.00 mL sample of a solution containing formic acid (a weak acid) was placed in a 25 mL volumetric flask and diluted to the m

ark with water. A 10.00 mL sample of the diluted formic acid solution was then titrated with 0.1322 M sodium hydroxide. The titration required 15.80 mL of sodium hydroxide to reach the equivalence point. Calculate the molarity and the percentage (by mass) formic acid in the original solution. The density of the formic acid solution was found to be 1.02 g/mL.

Answer:

Molarity: 0.522M

Percentage by mass: 2.36 (w/w) %

Explanation:

Formic acid, HCOOH reacts with NaOH as follows:

HCOOH + NaOH → NaCOOH + H₂O

To solve this question we must find the moles of NaOH added = Moles formic acid. Taken into account the dilution that was made we can find the moles -And molarity of formic acid and its percentage by mass as follows:

<em>Moles NaOH = Moles HCOOH:</em>

0.01580L * (0.1322mol / L) =0.002089 moles HCOOH

<em>Moles in the original solution:</em>

0.002089 moles HCOOH * (25mL / 10mL) = 0.005222 moles HCOOH

<em>Molarity of the solution:</em>

0.005222 moles HCOOH / 0.01000L =

<h3>0.522M</h3>

<em>Mass HCOOH in 1L -Molar mass: 46.03g/mol-</em>

0.522moles * (46.03g / mol) = 24.04g HCOOH

<em>Mass solution:</em>

1L = 1000mL * (1.02g / mL) = 1020g solution

<em>Mass percent:</em>

24.04g HCOOH / 1020g solution * 100

2.36 (w/w) %

If the change in Gibbs free energy for a process is positive, the corresponding change in entropy for the universe will be
Gnesinka [82]

If the change in Gibbs free energy for a process is positive, the corresponding change in entropy for the universe will be positive.

<h3>What is Gibbs free energy?</h3>

This is defined as the energy used by a substance involved in a chemical reaction.

The Gibbs free energy and entropy has a direct relationship which is why a positive gibbs free energy will result in a corresponding positive entropy.

What does a useful scientific explanation include ??
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer: scientific explanation

Explanation:

A really good scientific explanation should do two main things: It should explain all the observations and data we have. It should allow us to make testable predictions that we can check using future experiments.
