The titration of 24.30 mL of HCl solution of unknown concentration requires 12.84 mL of a 0.120 M NaOH solution to reach the equivalence point. What is the concentration of the unknown HCl solution in M?

0.0634 M HCl

Explanation:

Since HCl and NaOH react in a one-to-one mole ratio, we can just use M1V1 = M2V2 to solve for M1 (the concentration of HCl)

M1 = ? M HCl

V1 = 24.30 mL HCl

M2 = 0.120 M NaOH

V2 = 12.84 mL NaOH

M1(24.30 mL HCl) = (0.120 M NaOH)(12.84 mL NaOH)

M1 = 0.0634 M HCl

a mercury barometer is a device that uses the physical properties of mercury in a tube to measure barometric pressure. mercury barometers are used for : -

1. measurement of atmospheric pressure  

2. determining the altitude of a place

3. weather forecasting

4. calibration and checking of aneroid barometers

5. application in fluid mechanics

6. measurement of pressure in aircrafts

7. surface weather analysis

8. preparation of barographs

9. usage in physical sciences like physics, astronomy & chemistry

10. preparation of aircraft altimeters

characteristics of mercury barometer : -

1.used to define and measure atmospheric pressure.

2.on the average at sea level the column of mercury rises to a height of about 760 mm.

3.this quantity is equal to 1 atmosphere.

4.it is also known as standard atmospheric pressure.

5.a barometer in which the weight of a column of mercury in a glass tube with a sealed top is balanced against that of the atmosphere pressing on an exposed cistern of mercury at the base of the mercury column, the height of the column varying with atmospheric pressure.
