An analytical chemist weighs out 0.115 g of an unknown monoprotic acid into a 250 mL volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark with distilled water. She then titrates this solution with 0.1500M NaOH solution. When the titration reaches the equivalence point, the chemist finds she has added 8.5 mL of NaOH solution. Calculate the molar mass of the unknown acid. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. mol

You wish to prepare 1 L of a 0.02-M potassium iodate solution. You require that the final concentration be within 1% of 0.02 M and that the concentration must be known accurately to the fourth decimal place. How would you prepare this solution? Specify the glassware you would use, the accuracy needed for the balance, and the ranges of acceptable masses of KIO3 that can be used.
A soft drink contains an unknown mass of citric acid, C3H5O(COOH)3. It requires 6.42 mL of 9.580 × 10−2-M NaOH to neutralize the citric acid in 10.0 mL of the soft drink. C3H5O(COOH)3(aq) + 3 NaOH(aq) → Na3C3H5O(COO)3(aq) + 3 H2O(ℓ) Determine which step in these calculations for the mass of citric acid in 1 mL soft drink is incorrect? Why? n (NaOH) = (6.42 mL)(1L/1000 mL)(9.580 × 10−2 mol/L) n (citric acid) = (6.15 × 10−4 mol NaOH) × (3 mol citric acid/1 mol NaOH) m (citric acid in sample) = (1.85 × 10−3 mol citric acid) × (192.12 g/mol citric acid) m (citric acid in 1 mL soft drink) = (0.354 g citric acid)/(10 mL soft drink) Determine the correct result.
You are given a 1.50-g mixture of sodium nitrate and sodium chloride. You dissolve this mixture into 100 mL of water and then add an excess of 0.500 M silver nitrate solution. You produce a white solid, which you then collect, dry, and measure. The white solid has a mass of 0.641 g. a. If you had an extremely magnified view of the solution (to the atomic-molecular level), list the species you would see (include charges, if any). b. Write the balanced net ionic equation for the reaction that produces the solid. Include phases and charges. c. Calculate the percent sodium chloride in the original unknown mixture.
You have 250. mL of 0.136 M HCl. Using a volumetric pipet, you take 25.00 mL of that solution and dilute it to 100.00 mL in a volumetric flask. Now you take 10.00 mL of that solution, using a volumetric pipet, and dilute it to 100.00 mL in a volumetric flask. What is the concentration of hydrochloric acid in the final solution?
94. Baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate. NaHCO3) is often used to neutralize spills of acids on the benchtop in the laboratory. What mass of NaHCO3 would be needed to neutralize a spill consisting of 25.2 mL of 6.01 M hydrochloric acid solution?
Two beakers sit on a balance; the total mass is 167.170 g. One beaker contains a solution of KI; the other contains a solution of Pb(NO3)2. When the solution in one beaker is poured completely into the other, the following reaction occurs: 2 KI(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) 2 KNO3(aq) + PbI2(s) What is the total mass of the beakers and solutions after reaction? Explain completely.
Sulfuric acid is listed in a catalog with a concentration of 95-98%. A bottle of the acid in the stockroom states that 1.00 L has a mass of 1.84 kg. To determine the concentration of sulfuric acid in the stockroom bottle, a student dilutes 5.00 mL to 500. mL She then takes four 10.00-mL samples and titrates each with standardized sodium hydroxide (c = 0.1760 M). (a) What is the average concentration of the diluted sulfuric acid sample? (b) What is the mass percent of H2SO4 in the original bottle of the acid?
What mass of HCl is contained in 45.0 mL of an aqueous HCl solution that has a density of 1.19 g cm-3 and contains 37.21% HCl by mass?
A chemistry student weighs out 0.0909g of hypochlorous acid HClO into a 250.mL volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark with distilled water. He plans to titrate the acid with 0.1400M NaOH solution. Calculate the volume of NaOH solution the student will need to add to reach the equivalence point. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
