An NaOH(aq) solution cannot be made up to an exact concentration simply by weighing out the required mass of NaOH, because the NaOH is not pure.Also, water vapor condenses on the as it is being weighed. The solution must be standardized by titration. For this purpose, a 25.00 mL sample of an NaOH(aq) solution requires 28.34 mL of 0.1085 M HCI. What is the molarity of the NaOH(aq)?

- The concentration of a certain sodium hydroxide solution was determined by using the solution to titrate a sample of potassium hydrogen phthalate (abbreviated as KHP). KHP is an acid with one acidic hydrogen and a molar mass of 204.22 g/mol. In the titration, 34.67 mL of the sodium hydroxide solution was required to react with 0.1082 g KHP. Calculate the molarity of the sodium hydroxide.arrow_forwardA student tries to determine experimentally the molar mass of aspirin (HAsp). She takes 1.00 g of aspirin, dissolves it in water, and neutralizes it with 17.6 mL of 0.315 M KOH. The equation for the reaction is HAsp(aq)+OH(aq)Asp(aq)+H2OWhat is the molar mass of aspirin?arrow_forwardTitration of a 20.0-mL sample of acid rain required 1.7 mL of 0.08 11 M NaOH to reach the end point. If we assume that the acidity of the rain is due to the presence of sulfuric acid, what was the concentration of sulfuric acid in this sample of rain?arrow_forward
- A student weighs out a 4.80-g sample of aluminum bromide, transfers it to a 100-mL volumetric flask, adds enough water to dissolve it, and then adds water to the 100-mL mark. What is the molarity of aluminum bromide in the resulting solution?arrow_forwardA 8.50 g sample of KCl is dissolved in 66.0 mL of water. The resulting solution is then added to 72.0 mL of a 0.280 M CaCl2(aq) solution. Assuming that the volumes are additive, calculate the concentrations of each ion present in the final solution.arrow_forwardDescribe in words the titration of an acid with a base. Be sure to use the terms equivalence point, indicator, and end point correctly.arrow_forward
- A 10.0-mL sample of potassium iodide solution was analyzed by adding an excess of silver nitrate solution to produce silver iodide crystals, which were filtered from the solution. KI(aq)+AgNO3(aq)KNO3(aq)+AgI(s) If 2.183 g of silver iodide was obtained, what was the molarity of the original KI solution?arrow_forwardArsenic 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_forwardWhen 10. L of water is added to 3.0 L of 6.0 M H2SO4, what is the molarity of the resulting solution? Assume the volumes are additive.arrow_forward
