Question
A student is given 1.52 g of an unknown acid, which can be either oxalic acid, H2C2O4, or citric acid, H3C6H5O7. To determine which acid she has, she titrates the unknown acid with 0.650 M NaOH. The equivalence point is reached when 52.0 mL are added. Answer the following questions to determine the identity of the unknown acid.
1. How many moles of NaOH are consumed? Moles of NaOH = _____ mol |
2. How many moles of H+ acid are available to react if the acid is H2C2O4?
0.0403 mol NaOH
Moles of H+ from H2C2O4 = ___ mol
3. How many moles of H+ are available to react if the acid is H3C6H5O7?
0.0403 mol NaOH
0.0573 mol H+ from H2C2O4
Moles of H+ from H3C6H5O7 = ___ mol

- A student is asked to standardize a solution of barium hydroxide. He weighs out 0.929 g potassium hydrogen phthalate ( KHC8H404, treat this as a monoprotic acid). It requires 36.8 mL of barium hydroxide to reach the endpoint. A. What is the molarity of the barium hydroxide solution? M This barium hydroxide solution is then used to titrate an unknown solution of hydrobromic acid. B. If 28.5 mL of the barium hydroxide solution is required to neutralize 13.3 mL of hydrobromic acid, what is the molarity of the hydrobromic acid solution? Marrow_forward4. A student did not read the directions to the experiment properly and mixed up where to put the NaOH and the HCl solutions. He put the HCl in the buret and the NaOH in the flask. He then added a drop of the phenolphthalein to the solution in the flask. Does the student need to empty out all of the solutions and start over again or can he go ahead and run the titration?

- To increase the acidity of soil, you can add peat, which contains a complex acid mixture known as humic acid, a diprotic acid (two acidic protons). The complexity of the humic acid makes it difficult to determine how acidic you are making the soil. You decide to use a titration to get a better measure. If a titration of an unknown sample of humic acid required 3.68 mmols of NaOH, how many mmols of humic acid were present in the unknown sample?arrow_forwardOCHEMICAL REACTIONS Determining the volume of base needed to titrate a given mass... chemistry student weighs out 0.0570 g of chloroacetic acid (HCH₂CICO2) into a 250. mL volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark with distilled water.
