A beaker contains a 25 mL solution of an unknown monoprotic acid that reacts in a 1:1 stochiometric ratio with NaOH. Titrate the solution with NaOH to determine the concentration of the acid.

Perform a titration by setting the concentration of the NaOH solution and adding it to the acid solution using the different.

concentration of HCL = 4.56 g/dm3

Explanation:

If the titrant and analyte have a 1:1 mole ratio, the formula is molarity (M) of the acid x volume (V) of the acid = molarity (M) of the base x volume (V) of the base. (Molarity is the concentration of a solution expressed as the number of moles of solute per litre of solution.)

Step 1: Calculate the amount of sodium hydroxide in moles

Volume of sodium hydroxide solution = 25.0 ÷ 1,000 = 0.0250 dm3

Rearrange:

Concentration in mol/dm3 = \frac{\textup{amount~of~solute~in~mol}}{\textup{volume~in~dm}^3}

Amount of solutein mol = concentration in mol/dm3 × volume in dm3

Amount of sodium hydroxide = 0.100 × 0.0250

= 0.00250 mol

Step 2: Find the amount of hydrochloric acid in moles

The balanced equation is: NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

So the mole ratio NaOH:HCl is 1:1

Therefore 0.00250 mol of NaOH reacts with 0.00250 mol of HCl

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of hydrochloric acid in mol/dm3

Volume of hydrochloric acid = 20.00 ÷ 1000 = 0.0200 dm3

Concentration in mol/dm3 = \frac{\textup{amount~of~solute~in~mol}}{\textup{volume~in~dm}^3}

Concentration in mol/dm3 = \frac{\textup{0.00250}}{\textup{0.0200}}

= 0.125 mol/dm3

Step 4: Calculate the concentration of hydrochloric acid in g/dm3

Relative formula mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5

Mass = relative formula mass × amount

Mass of HCl = 36.5 × 0.125

= 4.56 g

So concentration = 4.56 g/dm3

in scientific notation, the value of the  speed of light in a vacuum

  will be written as 2.995 * 10^8. when this value is represented in the form of

  a * 10^b, then, a = 2.995 and b = 8.

the value of the speed of light in a vacuum given above can also be rounded up to approximately 300000000. in this case, the scientific notation will be written as 3 *10^8.
