A plant manufacturing nails and screws uses a large pool (volume = 10,000 L) to collect and treat its residual wastewater before discharging it in a nearby stream. The manufacturing process makes use of a strong acid (HCl) and a weaker one (phosphoric acid, H3PO4; pKa1 = 2.148, pKa2 = 7.20, pKa3 = 12.15), before discharging them in the pool for treatment (neutralization). Once the pool is filled to its maximum capacity, a technician measures the chlorine and phosphorus concentrations in the wastewater to be 0.5 M and 1.0 M, respectively. Assume (i) that chlorine and phosphorus come only from HCl and phosphoric acid, respectively, and (ii) that no H+ was consumed (or neutralized) in the manufacturing process. (a) Knowing that the technician has to bring the pH of the waste water back to a minimum of 7.2 before discharging it in the stream, what is the minimum amount (in kg) of NaOH(s) (40 g/mol) that he has to add to the pool before discharging the waste water in the stream? (b) What…

In the standardization of HCl using pure anhydrous sodium carbonate as the primarystandard for methyl orange as an indicator, 1.0 mL HCl was found to be equivalent to 0.05gof sodium carbonate (MW =106). The normality of HCl is:
a 25.00 mL aliquot of vinegar was diluted to 250 mL in a volumetric flask. Titration of 50.00 mL aliquots of the diluted solution required an average of 34.88 mL of 0.09600 M NaOH. Express the acidity of the vinegar in terms of the percentage (w/v) of acetic acid (MM:60g/mol). Consider the correct significant figures of your answer and do not forget the unit.
Malic acid (C4H6O5) is a dicarboxylic acid that naturally occurs in the production of bignay wine. Maria was tasked to find out the acid content in a 200.0 mL wine sample by titrating it with a standardized solution of KOH. He was able to establish the working concentration of the KOH solution by using 39.12 mL of it to titrate a primary standard of KHP that weighed 3.021 g. The grams and %w/w of Malic acid present in the 200.0 mL wine sample were then determined by titrating a 20.00 mL aliquot using 48.95 mL of the standardized KOH solution. C4H6O5 (aq) + 2KOH (aq) ↔ K2C4H4O5 (aq) + 2H2O (l) Assume the density of the wine sample is 1.000 g/mL MM of KHP = 204.22 g/mol MM of C4H6O5 = 134.0874 g/mol ? What is the molar concentration of the prepared KOH solution?…

Tartaric acid, H2C4H4O6, is a diprotic acid that naturally occurs in the production of wine. Jose was tasked to find out the acid content in a 100.0 mL wine sample by titrating it with a standardized solution of NaOH. He was able to establish the working concentration of the NaOH solution by using 35.21 mL of it to titrate a primary standard of KHP that weighed 3.001 g. The grams and %w/w of Tartaric acid present in the 100.0 mL wine sample were then determined by titrating a 25.00 mL aliquot using 43.56 mL of the standardized NaOH solution.

When a Vitamin C (ascorbic acid; MM = 176.12 g mol-1) tablet is crushed, dissolved and titrated with 0.0340 M KIO3(aq) to a purple/blue endpoint (given by a starch indicator), the volume of KIO3 used is 29.80 mL. If 60 mg of ascorbic acid is the recommended dietary allowance (i.e., 100% of the RDA), then what is the % RDA for the Vitamin C in the tablet? KIO3(aq) + 5 KI + 6 H+ → 3 I2(aq) + 3 H2O I2 (aq) + ascorbic acid → 2 I- + dehydroascorbic acid
