Concept explainers
Potassium hydrogen phthalate is a solid, monoprotic acid frequently used in the laboratory as a primary standard. It has the formula
Potassium hydrogen phthalate (sometimes called potassium biphthalate, as shown on this bottle) is an acid that is convenient to store and use because it is a solid.

- Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) solutions are used for the determination of Fe2+ in samples of unknown concentration. As a laboratory assistant, you are supposed to prepare 500 mL of a 0.1000 M KMnO4 solution. What mass of KMnO4, in grams, do you need?arrow_forwardVitamin C is ascorbic acid, HC6H7O6, which can be titrated with a strong base. HC6H7O6(aq) + NaOH(aq) NaC6H7O6(aq) + H2O() A student dissolved a 500.0-mg vitamin C tablet in 200.0 mL water and then titrated it with 0.1250-M NaOH. It required 21.30 mL of the base to reach the equivalence point. Calculate the mass percentage of the tablet that is impurity.arrow_forwardA soluble iodide was dissolved in water. Then an excess of silver nitrate, AgNO3, was added to precipitate all of the iodide ion as silver iodide, AgI. If 1.545 g of the soluble iodide gave 2.185 g of silver iodide, how many grams of iodine are in the sample of soluble iodide? What is the mass percentage of iodine, I, in the compound?arrow_forward
- Write a balanced equation for the reaction of hydroiodic acid, HI, with calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2. Then, write the balanced complete ionic equation and the net ionic equation for this neutralization reaction.arrow_forwardLactic acid, C3H6O3 is the acid present in sour milk. A 0.100-g sample of pure lactic acid requires 12.95 mL of 0.0857 M sodium hydroxide for complete reaction. How many moles of hydroxide ion are required to neutralize one mole of lactic acid?arrow_forward39. Standard solutions of calcium ion used to test for water hardness are prepared by dissolving pure calcium carbonate. CaCO3, in dilute hydrochloric acid. A 1.745-g sample of CaCO3 is placed in a 250.O-mL volumetric flask and dissolved in HCI. Then the solution is diluted to the calibration mark of the volumetric flask. Calculate the resulting molarity of calcium ion.arrow_forward
