A 0.500-g sample containing Na2CO3 plus inert matter is analyzed by adding 50.0 mL of 0.100 M HCl, a slight excess, boiling to r

emove CO2, and then back-titrating the excess acid with 0.100 M NaOH. If 5.6 mL NaOH is required for the back-titration, what is the percent Na2CO3 in the sample?

The percentage by mass of Na2CO3 in the sample is 48%.

The equation of the reaction of Na2CO3 with HCl;

Na2CO3(aq) + 2HCl(aq) ------> 2NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)

Since the HCl is in excess, the excess is back titrated with NaOH as follows;

NaOH (aq) + HCl(aq) ---->NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

Number of moles of HCl added =  0.100 M × 50/1000 L = 0.005 moles

Number of moles of NaOH added = 5.6/1000 ×  0.100 M = 0.00056 moles

Since the reaction of NaOH and NaOH is 1:1, 0.00056 moles of HCl reacted with excess HCl.

Amount of HCl that reacted with Na2CO3 =  0.005 moles -  0.00056 moles = 0.0044 moles

Now;

1 mole of Na2CO3 reacts with 2 moles of HCl

x moles of Na2CO3 reacts with 0.0044 moles of HCl

x = 1 mole × 0.0044 moles / 2 moles

x = 0.0022 moles

Mass of Na2CO3 reacted = 0.0022 moles × 106 g/mol = 0.24 g

Percentage of Na2CO3  in the sample = 0.24 g/ 0.500-g × 100/1 = 48%

The Balance Chemical Equation is as follow,

                                  2 HCl + Pb(NO₃)₂     →    2 HNO₃ + PbCl₂

According to equation,

          331.2 g (1 mole) Pb(NO₃)₂ produces  =  278.1 g (1 mole) PbCl₂

So,

                 870 g of Pb(NO₃)₂ will produce  =  X g of PbCl₂

Solving for X,

                     X  =  (870 g × 278.1 g) ÷ 331.2 g

                     X  =  730.5 g of PbCl₂

Therefore,

               Theoretical Yield =  730.5 g

Also as given,

                Actual Yield =  650 g

So using following formula for percentage yield,

                        %age Yield  =  (Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield) × 100

Putting values,

                        %age Yield  =  (650 g / 730.5 g) × 100

                        %age Yield  =  88.98 %

How many grams of potassium chloride are required to make 250 ml of a 0.75 m kcl solution?
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The solution would need 13.9 g of KCl

Explanation:

0.75 m, means molal concentration

0.75 moles in 1 kg of solvent.

Let's think as an aqueous solution.

250 mL = 250 g, cause water density (1g/mL)

1000 g have 0.75 moles of solute

250 g will have (0.75 . 250)/1000 = 0.1875 moles of KCl

Let's convert that moles in mass (mol . molar mass)

0.1875 m . 74.55 g/m = 13.9 g
