Welcome back — missed you this week.
1. Molarity of NaOH solution
Step 1: Calculate the molar mass of KHP (KHC8H4O4).
Molar mass of KHP =(1×39.098)+(5×1.008)+(8×12.011)+(4×15.999)=204.222 g/mol
Step 2: Calculate the moles of KHP.
Moles of KHP=MolarmassofKHPMassofKHP=204.222g/mol0.8234g=0.0040319 mol
Step 3: Determine the moles of NaOH.
The reaction between KHP and NaOH is 1:1.
KHC8H4O4(aq)+NaOH(aq)→KNaC8H4O4(aq)+H2O (l)
Therefore, moles of NaOH = moles of KHP =0.0040319 mol.
Step 4: Convert the volume of NaOH to liters.
Volume of NaOH=38.76cm3=38.76mL=0.03876 L
Step 5: Calculate the molarity of the NaOH solution.
Molarity of NaOH=VolumeofNaOH(L)MolesofNaOH=0.03876L0.0040319mol=0.10403 M
The exact molarity of the NaOH solution is 0.1040M.
2. Concentration of the diluted FeCl3 solution
Step 1: Identify the given values for dilution.
Initial concentration (M1) =3.47×10−2 M
Initial volume (V1) =5.00cm3
Final volume (V2) =250cm3
Step 2: Use the dilution formula M1V1=M2V2.
(3.47×10−2M)×(5.00cm3)=M2×(250cm3)
Step 3: Solve for M2.
M2=250cm3(3.47×10−2M)×(5.00cm3)
M2=250cm30.1735M⋅cm3
M2=0.000694M=6.94×10−4 M
The concentration of the diluted solution is 6.94×10−4M.
3. Molarity of the FeCl3 (aq) solution
Step 1: Calculate the molar mass of FeCl3.
Molar mass of FeCl3=(1×55.845)+(3×35.453)=55.845+106.359=162.204 g/mol
Step 2: Calculate the moles of FeCl3.
Moles of FeCl3=MolarmassofFeCl3MassofFeCl3=162.204g/mol0.563g=0.0034709 mol
Step 3: Convert the volume of the solution to liters.
Volume of solution=100.0mL=0.1000 L
Step 4: Calculate the molarity of the FeCl3 solution.
Molarity of FeCl3=Volumeofsolution(L)MolesofFeCl3=0.1000L0.0034709mol=0.034709 M
The molarity of the FeCl3 (aq) solution is 0.0347M.
4. Concentration of the diluted solution
Step 1: Identify the given values for dilution.
Initial concentration (M1) =0.03477 M (using the provided answer from question 3 for consistency)
Initial volume (V1) =5.00cm3
Final volume (V2) =250cm3
Step 2: Use the dilution formula M1V1=M2V2.
(0.03477M)×(5.00cm3)=M2×(250cm3)
Step 3: Solve for M2.
M2=250cm3(0.03477M)×(5.00cm3)
M2=250cm30.17385M⋅cm3
M2=0.0006954 M
The concentration of the diluted solution is 0.0006954M.
