My apologies for the visibility issue. Let's re-do the titration calculations with clearer formatting.
Titration of of solution A with hydrochloric acid.
Step 1: Record the burette readings and calculate the average volume of HCl used.
| Titration | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | | :--------------- | :-------- | :-------- | :-------- | | Final reading | | | | | Initial reading | | | | | Volume used | | | |
The consistent readings are and . Average volume of HCl used = Average volume of HCl used = Average volume of HCl used =
Step 2: Calculate the number of moles of hydrochloric acid (HCl) used. Formula: Moles = Concentration × Volume (in dm³) Volume of HCl = Concentration of HCl =
Moles of HCl = Moles of HCl =
Step 3: Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction. Assuming solution A is sodium carbonate (), the reaction with hydrochloric acid is:
Step 4: Calculate the number of moles of solution A in . From the balanced equation, the mole ratio of to HCl is 1:2. Moles of = Moles of HCl / 2
Moles of = Moles of =
Step 5: Calculate the concentration of solution A in . Formula: Concentration = Moles / Volume (in dm³) Volume of solution A =
Concentration of = Concentration of =
Step 6: Calculate the concentration of solution A in . First, calculate the molar mass of : Molar mass of Molar mass of Molar mass of
Formula: Concentration (g/dm³) = Concentration (mol/dm³) × Molar mass Concentration of = Concentration of = (to 3 significant figures)
Step 7: Calculate the percentage purity of sample A. The original concentration of sample A was . Percentage purity = (Concentration of pure in g/dm³ / Original concentration of sample A in g/dm³) × 100%
Percentage purity = Percentage purity = Percentage purity =
