A 2.1102.110 g sample of a solid mixture containing only potassium carbonate (MM=138.2058 g/molMM=138.2058 g/mol) and potassium bicarbonate (MM=100.1154 g/molMM=100.1154 g/mol) is dissolved in distilled water. A volume of 34.6734.67 mL of a 0.7660.766 M HCl standard solution is required to titrate the mixture to a bromocresol green end point. Calculate the weight percent of potassium carbonate and potassium bicarbonate in the mixture.
