Interpretation:
The normality of the hydrochloric acid when
Concept introduction:
Normality is defined as the number of equivalents of solute per unit volume of the solution. Equivalent mass is the mass of the compound per equivalent. One equivalent of any substance means it would react with or supply 1 mole of electron or protons in a reaction.
The normality of a solution is a measure of concentration. It is equal to the ratio of gram equivalent weight to the volume of solution in liter. General expression is shown below.

- 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.arrow_forwardThe carbon dioxide exhaled in the breath of astronauts is often removed from the spacecraft by reaction with lithium hydroxide 2LiOH(s)+CO2(g)Li2CO3(s)+H2O(l) Estimate the grams of lithium hydroxide required per astronaut per day. Assume that each astronaut requires 2.50 103 kcal of energy per day. Further assume that this energy can be equated to the heat of combustion of a quantity of glucose, C6H12O6, to CO2(g) and H2O(l). From the amount of glucose required to give 2.50 103 kcal of heat, calculate the amount of CO2 produced and hence the amount of LiOH required. The H for glucose(s) is 1273 kJ/mol.arrow_forwardTwo 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.arrow_forward

- A student wants to make a 1.600 M aqueous solution of barium sulfate, BaSO4, and has a bottle containing 12.00 g of barium sulfate. What should be the final volume of the solution? Find the numerical answer for this question and make sure to include the following: What is the formula for molarity? What is the molar mass for barium sulfate? When you give your numerical answer, what are the correct significant figures and how do you know that is the correct amount?arrow_forwardSodium hydroxide is used extensively in acid-base titrations because it is a strong, inexpensive base. A sodium hydroxide solution was standardized by titrating 25.00 mL of 0.1528 M standard hydrochloride acid. The initial buret reading of the sodium hydroxide was 2.24 mL, and the final reading was 39.21 mL. What was the molarity of the base solution?arrow_forwardA student performs the titration of hydrochloric acid with sodium hydroxide. A 20.00 mL aliquot of the HCl solution required 30.50 mL of a 0.150 mol L-1 NaOH solution to reach the end point in the titration using a phenolphthalein indicator. Write the balanced molecular equation for this reaction AND determine the concentration of the original hydrochloric acid solution. Give your answer to the correct number of significant figures.arrow_forward
