A 4.36-g sample of an unknown alkali metal hydroxide is dissolved in 100.0 mL of water. An acid-base indicator is added, and the resulting sol utio n is titrated with 2.50 M HCl(aq) solution. The indicator changes color, signaling that the equivalence point has been reached, after 17.0 mL of the hydrochlor ic acid solution has been added. What is the molar mass of the metal hyd roxide?

We are given a sample of an unknown alkali metal hydroxide, and are being asked it's molar mass. If we were to consider this alkali metal hydroxide with HCl ( hydrochloric acid ), the following reaction would take place -

hydrochloric acid + sodium hydroxide → sodium chloride + water

Let me rewrite this reaction with respect to the " lettering " of the compounds,

HCl + MOH → MCl + H2O

M is replaced with the alkaline metal sodium in this case. From that, you can tell that this unknown alkali metal hydroxide is sodium hydroxide.

To solve for the number of moles of HCl, we can do the following -

n = C * V = 2.5 * 0.017 = 0.0425 moles,

n( MOH ) = n( HCl ) = 0.0425 moles

Using the formula n = m / M -

Molar Mass = m / n = 4.36 / 0.0425 ≈ 103 grams / mole

Solution = ( About ) 103 grams / moles of hydroxide

passed in september 1935, these laws are known as nuremberg laws.   they forbid jews from marrying but not directly forced them to divorce aryans. what is most noticeable is the fact that the jews were defranchised, meaning by this that they were not expected to have any civil rights, including the right to vote. the right answer is deprived of the right to vote.
