Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The chemical equation for the neutralization reaction is to be represented and the purity of the sample in terms of percentage is to be calculated.
Concept introduction:
The number of moles of a reactant is calculated by the following formula:
Here,
The concentration of a solution in terms of molarity is determined as follows:
Here,
A chemical reaction always follows the law of conservation of mass, according to which when a chemical reaction occurs, the mass of atoms in products should be equal to the mass of atoms in reactants.
Mass percent is the way of representing the mass of an element in a compound or in a mixture. It can be determined as follows:
Here,

- Arsenic acid, H3AsO4, is a poisonous acid that has been used in the treatment of wood to prevent insect damage. Arsenic acid has three acidic protons. Say you take a 25.00-mL sample of arsenic acid and prepare it for titration with NaOH by adding 25.00 mL of water. The complete neutralization of this solution requires the addition of 53.07 mL of 0.6441 M NaOH solution. Write the balanced chemical reaction for the titration, and calculate the molarity of the arsenic acid sample.arrow_forward1. Sometimes a reaction can fall in more than one category. Into what category (or categories) does the reaction of Ba(OH)2(aq) + H+PO4(aq) fit? acid-base and oxidation-reduction oxidation-reduction acid-base and precipitation precipitationarrow_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
- A metal, M, was converted to the chloride MCl2. Then a solution of the chloride was treated with silver nitrate to give silver chloride crystals, which were filtered from the solution. MCl2(aq)+2AgNO3(aq)M(NO3)2(aq)+2AgCl(s) If 2.434 g of the metal gave 7.964 g of silver chloride, what is the atomic weight of the metal? What is the metal?arrow_forwardFor a product to be called vinegar, it must contain at least 5.0% acetic acid, HC2H3O2, by mass. A 10.00-g sample of a raspberry vinegar is titrated with 0.1250 M Ba(OH)2 and required 37.50 mL for complete neutralization. Can the product be called a vinegar?arrow_forwardA 25.0-mL sample of sodium sulfate solution was analyzed by adding an excess of barium chloride solution to produce barium sulfate crystals, which were filtered from the solution. Na2SO4(aq)+BaCl2(aq)2NaCl(aq)+BaSO4(s) If 5.719 g of barium sulfate was obtained, what was the molarity of the original Na2SO4 solution?arrow_forward
- The active ingredients of an antacid tablet contained only magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide. Complete neutralization of a sample of the active ingredients required 48.5 mL of 0.187 M hydrochloric acid. The chloride salts from this neutralization were obtained by evaporation of the filtrate from the titration; they weighed 0. 4200 g. What was the percentage by mass of magnesium hydroxide in the active ingredients of the antacid tablet?arrow_forwardAn antacid tablet contains sodium hydrogen carbonate, NaHCO3, and inert ingredients. A 0.465-g sample of powdered tablet was mixed with 53.3 mL of 0.190 M HCl (hydrochloric acid). The mixture was allowed to stand until it reacted. NaHCO3(s)+HCl(aq)NaCl(aq)+H2O(l)+CO2(g) The excess hydrochloric acid was titrated with 54.6 mL of 0.128 M NaOH (sodium hydroxide). HCl(aq)+NaOH(aq)NaCl(aq)+H2O(l) What is the percentage of sodium hydrogen carbonate in the antacid?arrow_forwardWrite the net ionic equation for the reaction, if any, that occurs on mixing (a) solutions of sodium hydroxide and magnesium chloride. (b) solutions of sodium nitrate and magnesium bromide. (c) magnesium metal and a solution of hydrochloric acid to produce magnesium chloride and hydrogen. Magnesium metal reacting with HCl.arrow_forward
- Oranges and grapefruits are known as citrus fruits because their acidity comes mainly from citric acid, H3C6H5O7. Calculate the concentration of citric acid in a solution if a 30.00-mL sample is neutralized by 15.10 mL of 0.0100 M KOH. Assume that three acidic hydrogens of each citric acid molecule are neutralized in the reaction.arrow_forward4.51 What is the role of an indicator in a titration?arrow_forwardDescribe in words how you would prepare pure crystalline AgCl and NaNO3 from solid AgNO3 and solid NaCl.arrow_forward
