Question
Citric acid (abbreviated H3Cit) is a triprotic acid, so 3 moles of hydroxide ions are required per mole of citric acid for complete neutralization.
A.) Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction of citric acid with sodium hydroxide. (Note that citrate ion is actually a polyatomic ion with carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms and an overall charge of −3. For now, express citrate ion as Cit3−.)
B.) If 36.10 mL of 0.223 M NaOH is used to neutralize a 0.515 g sample of citric acid, what is the molar mass (in g/mol) of the acid?

- Antacid tablets are used to neutralize stomach acid and relieve indigestion or acid reflux. Many commercial antacids contain magnesium hydroxide, Mg(OH)2, as the active ingredient. If one tablet of antacid contains 15 mg of Mg(OH)2, then calculate the number of tablets required to completely neutralize 5 mL of stomach acid if the stomach acid is 0.2 M HCl.arrow_forwardMy book says in the glossary for the definition of salt that it is "Any ionic compound whose cation comes from a base and whose anion comes from an acid." That's their definition of "salt." Then it has this equation in the middle of the text: Zn+2HBr --> ZnBr2 + H2 Then it says, "Many metals undergo displacement reactions with acids, producing salts and hydrogen gas." Then it gives another example of magnesium and hydrochloric acid forming H2 and MgCl2. I'm confused, because zinc and magnesium aren't bases, yet they're producing salts. According to the definition of a salt from the book, the cation must come from a base. The cations here come from metals. Is that an incomplete definition of "salt" or is there a theoretical base out there that generally produces MgCl2 and ZnBr2?arrow_forwardHelp me which answer is right?arrow_forward
- 1. Give reasons why the helium atom is smaller than the cesium atom. 2. A student got a problem wrong. They were asked, “How many grams of MgCl2 (molar mass = 95.21 g/mol) are needed to make 3.16 L of a 0.500 M MgCl2 solution?” The correct answer is 150. but the student got 1.58. What mistake did the student make? 3. To solve the following problem what is the reason you must subtract the vapor pressure of water, 24 torr, from the total pressure, 747 torr in order to solve the problem? “A 500.0-mL sample of H2 gas is collected over water at 298 K and 747 torr. What volume would the dry H2 gas occupy at STP? (Given: the vapor pressure of water at 298K is 24 torr).” By the way, the answer is .436 liters. NOTE: I am not asking you to solve this problem. I am asking the reason for subtracting the vapor pressure. If you simply solve the problem, you will get no points.arrow_forwardWhich of these compounds are oxoacids (also known as oxyacids)?
