Suppose a student made a different sodium hydroxide solution using 0.401g of solid sodium hydroxide and 200mL of water. The student then standardized this solution using benzoic acid in a similar manner to that depicted in the simulation. From the following additional data recorded by the student: a) Mass of benzoic acid: 0.158g b) Volumer of the benzoic acid solution: 100.0mL c) Volume of sodium hydroxide need to neutralize the solution: 27.84mL Determine the molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution.

0.05 M

Explanation:

Mass of benzoic acid= 0.158g

Volume of benzoic acid= 100 mL

Volume of sodium hydroxide = 27.84mL

Molar mass of benzoic acid= 122g/mol

Number of moles of benzoic acid= 0.158g/122g/mol= 1.3 × 10^-3 moles

C= no of moles/volume

C= 1.3 × 10^-3 moles × 1000/100

C= 0.013M

So;

Volume of acid VA = 100mL

Concentration of acid CA= 0.013M

Volume of Base VB = 27.84mL

Concentration of Base CB= ???

Number of moles of acid NA =1

Number of moles of Base NB= 1

From;

CAVA/CBVB= NA/NB

CAVANB= CBVBNA

CB= CAVANB/VBNA

CB= 0.013 × 100 × 1/27.84 × 1

CB= 0.05 M

explanation:

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
