Okay, Ruddy, let's present the titration calculations in a clear, step-by-step format.

Titration Calculations

  1. Calculate the average volume of hydrochloric acid (HCl) used.

    The consistent readings are 23.70 cm323.70\text{ cm}^3 and 18.80 cm318.80\text{ cm}^3.

    Average volume of HCl=23.70 cm3+18.80 cm32\text{Average volume of HCl} = \frac{23.70\text{ cm}^3 + 18.80\text{ cm}^3}{2} Average volume of HCl=42.50 cm32\text{Average volume of HCl} = \frac{42.50\text{ cm}^3}{2} Average volume of HCl=21.25 cm3\text{Average volume of HCl} = \boxed{21.25\text{ cm}^3}
  2. Calculate the number of moles of hydrochloric acid (HCl) used.

    Given concentration of HCl = 0.100 mol/dm30.100\text{ mol/dm}^3.
    Volume of HCl = 21.25 cm3=0.02125 dm321.25\text{ cm}^3 = 0.02125\text{ dm}^3.

    Moles of HCl=Concentration×Volume\text{Moles of HCl} = \text{Concentration} \times \text{Volume} Moles of HCl=0.100 mol/dm3×0.02125 dm3\text{Moles of HCl} = 0.100\text{ mol/dm}^3 \times 0.02125\text{ dm}^3 Moles of HCl=0.002125 mol\text{Moles of HCl} = \boxed{0.002125\text{ mol}}
  3. Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

    Assuming solution A is sodium carbonate (Na2CO3\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3):

    Na2CO3(aq)+2HCl(aq)→2NaCl(aq)+H2O(l)+CO2(g)\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3\text{(aq)} + 2\text{HCl(aq)} \rightarrow 2\text{NaCl(aq)} + \text{H}_2\text{O(l)} + \text{CO}_2\text{(g)}
  4. Calculate the number of moles of solution A (Na2CO3\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3) in 25.0 cm325.0\text{ cm}^3.

    From the balanced equation, the mole ratio of Na2CO3\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 to HCl is 1:2.

    Moles of Na2CO3=Moles of HCl2\text{Moles of Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = \frac{\text{Moles of HCl}}{2} Moles of Na2CO3=0.002125 mol2\text{Moles of Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = \frac{0.002125\text{ mol}}{2} Moles of Na2CO3=0.0010625 mol\text{Moles of Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = \boxed{0.0010625\text{ mol}}
  5. Calculate the concentration of solution A (Na2CO3\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3) in mol/dm3\text{mol/dm}^3.

    Volume of solution A = 25.0 cm3=0.0250 dm325.0\text{ cm}^3 = 0.0250\text{ dm}^3.

    Concentration of Na2CO3=MolesVolume\text{Concentration of Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = \frac{\text{Moles}}{\text{Volume}} Concentration of Na2CO3=0.0010625 mol0.0250 dm3\text{Concentration of Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = \frac{0.0010625\text{ mol}}{0.0250\text{ dm}^3} Concentration of Na2CO3=0.0425 mol/dm3\text{Concentration of Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = \boxed{0.0425\text{ mol/dm}^3}
  6. Calculate the molar mass of Na2CO3\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3.

    Atomic masses: Na = 22.99, C = 12.01, O = 16.00.

    Molar mass of Na2CO3=(2×22.99)+12.01+(3×16.00)\text{Molar mass of Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = (2 \times 22.99) + 12.01 + (3 \times 16.00) Molar mass of Na2CO3=45.98+12.01+48.00\text{Molar mass of Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = 45.98 + 12.01 + 48.00 Molar mass of Na2CO3=105.99 g/mol\text{Molar mass of Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = \boxed{105.99\text{ g/mol}}
  7. Calculate the concentration of solution A (Na2CO3\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3) in g/dm3\text{g/dm}^3.

    Concentration (g/dm3)=Concentration (mol/dm3)×Molar mass\text{Concentration (g/dm}^3) = \text{Concentration (mol/dm}^3) \times \text{Molar mass} Concentration (g/dm3)=0.0425 mol/dm3×105.99 g/mol\text{Concentration (g/dm}^3) = 0.0425\text{ mol/dm}^3 \times 105.99\text{ g/mol} Concentration (g/dm3)=4.50 g/dm3 (to 3 significant figures)\text{Concentration (g/dm}^3) = \boxed{4.50\text{ g/dm}^3} \text{ (to 3 significant figures)}
  8. Calculate the percentage purity of sample A.

    Original concentration of sample A = 5.00 g/dm35.00\text{ g/dm}^3.

    Percentage purity=Concentration of pure Na2CO3Original concentration of sample A×100%\text{Percentage purity} = \frac{\text{Concentration of pure Na}_2\text{CO}_3}{\text{Original concentration of sample A}} \times 100\% Percentage purity=4.50 g/dm35.00 g/dm3×100%\text{Percentage purity} = \frac{4.50\text{ g/dm}^3}{5.00\text{ g/dm}^3} \times 100\% Percentage purity=0.900×100%\text{Percentage purity} = 0.900 \times 100\% Percentage purity=90.0%\text{Percentage purity} = \boxed{90.0\%}
