Fresh day Hurry, let's solve.
Here are the solutions to your chemistry questions.
Titration Problem:
Assumption: Since the average titre value for solution A (HCl) is not provided, I will assume an average titre volume of 20.00cm3 for the calculations.
Given Information:
- Solution A: HCl, prepared by dissolving 7.3 g of HCl gas in 1 dm3 of solution.
- Solution B: Na2CO3, contains 2.65 g in 250 cm3 of solution.
- Volume of B used for titration = 20 cm3.
- Reaction: Na2CO3(aq)+2HCl(aq)→2NaCl(aq)+H2O(l)+CO2(g)
- Relative atomic masses: H=1.0, C=12.0, O=16.0, Na=23.0, Cl=35.5.
- Molar volume of gas at S.T.P. = 22.4 dm3.
Molar Masses:
- Molar mass of Na2CO3=(2×23.0)+12.0+(3×16.0)=46.0+12.0+48.0=106.0 g/mol.
- Molar mass of HCl=1.0+35.5=36.5 g/mol.
Calculations:
1. (i) Concentration of B in mol dm−3
Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of Na2CO3 in 250 cm3.
Moles of Na2CO3=MolarmassMass=106.0g/mol2.65g=0.025 mol
Step 2: Calculate the concentration of Na2CO3 in mol dm−3.
Concentration of B=Volumeindm3Moles=250cm3×1000cm31dm30.025mol=0.250dm30.025mol=0.100moldm−3
The concentration of B is 0.100moldm−3.
1. (ii) Concentration of A in mol dm−3
Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of Na2CO3 in the 20 cm3 portion used for titration.
Moles of Na2CO3in20cm3=Concentration×Volumeindm3
=0.100moldm−3×(20cm3×1000cm31dm3)=0.100moldm−3×0.020dm3=0.002 mol
Step 2: Use the mole ratio from the balanced equation: 1molofNa2CO3 reacts with 2 mol of HCl.
Moles of HCl=2×MolesofNa2CO3=2×0.002mol=0.004 mol
Step 3: Calculate the concentration of A (HCl) using the assumed average titre volume of 20.00 cm3.
Concentration of A=VolumeofAindm3MolesofHCl=20.00cm3×1000cm31dm30.004mol=0.020dm30.004mol=0.200moldm−3
The concentration of A is 0.200moldm−3.
1. (iii) Concentration of A in g dm−3
Step 1: Convert the molar concentration of A (HCl) to mass concentration using its molar mass.
Concentration of A in g dm−3=Concentrationinmoldm−3×Molar mass of HCl
=0.200moldm−3×36.5g/mol=7.30gdm−3
The concentration of A is 7.30gdm−3.
1. (iv) Volume of hydrogen chloride gas dissolved in 1 dm3 of solution A at S.T.P.
Step 1: The problem states that solution A is prepared by dissolving 7.3 g of hydrogen chloride gas in 1 dm3 of solution. We need to find the volume this mass of gas would occupy at S.T.P.
Moles of HCl gas=MolarmassMass=36.5g/mol7.3g=0.20 mol
Step 2: Use the molar volume of gas at S.T.P. (22.4 dm3/mol) to find the volume.
Volume of HCl gas=Moles×Molar volume at S.T.P.
