Malic acid (C4H6O5) is a dicarboxylic acid that naturally occurs in the production of bignay wine. Maria was tasked to find out the acid content in a 200.0 mL wine sample by titrating it with a standardized solution of KOH. He was able to establish the working concentration of the KOH solution by using 39.12 mL of it to titrate a primary standard of KHP that weighed 3.021 g. The grams and %w/w of Malic acid present in the 200.0 mL wine sample were then determined by titrating a 20.00 mL aliquot using 48.95 mL of the standardized KOH solution.
C4H6O5 (aq) + 2KOH (aq) ↔ K2C4H4O5 (aq) + 2H2O (l)
Assume the density of the wine sample is 1.000 g/mL
MM of KHP = 204.22 g/mol
MM of C4H6O5 = 134.0874 g/mol

- A technician would like to standardize an unknown Ca(OH)2 solution. It takes 18.53 mL of a 0.174 M solution of HCI to titrate 25.00 mL the unknown Ca(OH)2 solution. Calculate the molarity of the Ca(OH)2 solution. Tip: Don't forget to consider the mole ratio between HCl and Ca(OH)2. 2 HCI (aq) + Ca(OH), (aq) CaCl2 (aq) + 2 H2O (1)arrow_forwardYou have been provided with a 2.08 x 10-2 L sample of lithium hydroxide (LiOH) of unknown concentration. You perform a titration with 2.19 M nitric acid (HNO3), and find that 24.6 mL are required to reach the equivalence point (as determined using a coloured indicator). What is the concentration of the lithium hydroxide solution in mol L-1?arrow_forwardA student prepares a dilute solution of sodium hydroxide, NaOH (aq), starting with 6 M sodium hydroxide. She then titrates a 1.372 g sample of KHP with the dilute sodium hydroxide solution, NaOH (aq), to a phenolphthalein end point. A.) If the titration required 21.84 mL of sodium hydroxide, NaOH (aq), calculate the molar concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution, NaOH (aq). (Remember that KHP is potassium hydrogen phthalate, KHC8H4O4, NOT potassium hydrogen phosphorus!) B.) The student uses the same sodium hydroxide to titrate 10.00 mL of vinegar to a phenolphthalein end point. If the titration required 27.48 mL of sodium hydroxide, NaOH (aq), calculate the molar concentration of acetic acid, HC2H3O2 (aq), in the vinegar. C.) Calculate the mass percent of acetic acid, HC2H3O2 (aq), in the vinegar using the molar concentration for acetic acid, HC2H3O2 (aq), determined in part b and assuming the density of the solution is 1.01 g/mL.arrow_forward
- A chemistry student needs to standardize a fresh solution of sodium hydroxide. She carefully weighs out 13.mg of oxalic acid H2C2O4, a diprotic acid that can be purchased inexpensively in high purity, and dissolves it in 250.mL of distilled water. The student then titrates the oxalic acid solution with her sodium hydroxide solution. When the titration reaches the equivalence point, the student finds she has used 11.9mL of sodium hydroxide solution. Calculate the molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide solution. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.arrow_forwardNormal calcium levels in the blood should be between 9.0 and 10.5 mg/dL. Calcium levels in the blood can be determined by adding oxalate ion to precipitate calcium oxalate, CaC2O4, followed by dissolving the precipitate in aqueous acid and titrating the resulting oxalic acid (H2C2O4) with KMnO4. 5 H2C2O4 (aq) + 2 MnO4–(aq) + 6 H+(aq) yields 10 CO2 (g) + 2 Mn2+(aq) + 8 H2O(l) What is the concentration of Ca2+ (mg/dL) in a 10.0 mL sample of blood if 10.54 mL of 9.88 x 10–4 M KMnO4 solution is needed for the titration.arrow_forwardA solution of 655 mL of 0.852 M CO(NH2)2 is mixed with a solution of 432 mL of 0.487 M CO(NH2)2. It is then evaporated on a hotplate to a volume of 825 mL. What is the molarity of CO(NH2)2 in this final solution? [Be aware that evaporation only changes the amount of water, not the amount of CO(NH2)2, because the boiling point of CO(NH2)2 is nearly 200 °C, too high to evaporate out of the solution to a significant extent].arrow_forward
- 2.) Five standardized dilutions of aqueous lead(II) chromate solution were prepared by adding a volume of 0.0010 M PbCrOa(ag) from a buret and then diluting the solution with deionized water to a total volume of 100.0 mL. Use the provided information to determine [CrO,2] in each. Hint: enter the decimal before the scientific notation.

A 25.00 mL sample of a natural water was diluted to 100.00 ML with distilled water, and 2.06 g of a cation - exchange resin was added. After stirring, the mixture was filtered and the solid remaining on the filter paper was washed with three 15.00 mL portions of water. The filtrate and washings required 16.30 mL of 0.0282 M NaOH to give a bromocresol green end point. a) Calculate the number of millimoles of cation present in exactly 1.00 L of sample. b ) Report the results in terms of milligrams of CaCO3 per liter.
