We know that the number of moles HCl in 14.3mL of 0.1M HCl can be found by multiplying the volume (in L) by the concentration (in M).
(0.0143L HCl)x(0.1M HCl)=0.00143 moles HCl
Since HCl reacts with KOH in a one to one molar ratio (KOH+HCl⇒H₂O+KCl), the number of moles HCl used to neutralize KOH is the number of moles KOH. Therefore the 25mL solution had to contain 0.00143mol KOH.
To find the mass of KOH in the original mixture you have to divide the number of moles of KOH by the 0.025L to find the molarity of the KOH solution..
(0.00143mol KOH)/(0.025L)=0.0572M KOH
Since the morality does not change when you take some of the solution away, we know that the 250mL solution also had a molarity of 0.0572. That being said you can find the number of moles the mixture had by multiplying 0.0572M KOH by 0.250L to get the number of moles of KOH.
(0.0572M KOH)x(0.250L)=0.0143mol KOH
Now you can find the mass of the KOH by multiplying it by its molar mass of 56.1g/mol.
0.0143molx56.1g/mol=0.802g KOH
Finally you can calulate the percent KOH of the original mixture by dividing the mass of the KOH by 5g.
0.802g/5g=0.1604
the original mixture was 16% KOH
I hope this helps.
Answer:
a. Approximately
.
b. Approximately
.
Explanation:
The unit of concentration "
" is equivalent to "
", which means "moles per liter."
However, the volume of both solutions were given in mililiters
. Convert these volumes to liters:
.
.
In a solution of volume
where the concentration of a solute is
, there would be
(moles of) formula units of this solute.
Calculate the number of moles of
formula units in each of the two solutions:
Solution in a.:
.
Solution in b.:
.
What volume of that
(same as
)
solution would contain that many
For the solution in a.:
.
Convert the unit of that volume to milliliters:
.
Similarly, for the solution in b.:
.
Convert the unit of that volume to milliliters:
.
PV=nRT
P=nRT/V
P=[(0.650mol)(0.08206)(298K)]/(0.750L)=21.2atm
