You are given solutions of HCl and NaOH and must determine their concentrations. You use 27.5mL of NaOH to titrate 100mL of HCl and 18.4mL of NaOH to titrate 50.0mL of 0.0782M H2SO4. Find the unknown concentrations.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Unknown concentrations mentioned in the question should be calculated.

Step by step solution

01

Balanced equation of NaOH – H2SO4 titration

Titration of sulfuric acid by sodium hydroxide produces sodium sulfate and water. The balanced equation is like

2NaOH(aq)+H2SO4(aq)→Na2SO4(aq)+2H2O(l)

02

Calculation of moles of H2SO4 

According to the question,

Volume of H2SO4 = 50mL = 0.05L

Molarity of H2SO4 = 0.0782M

Again you know,

moles=molarity×volume

Now, moles of H2SO4

=(0.0782×0.05)(mol)=0.00391(mol)

Hence, moles of H2SO4 are 0.00391mol.

03

Calculation of moles of NaOH

According to the balanced equation

2NaOH(aq)+H2SO4(aq)→Na2SO4(aq)+2H2O(l)

2 moles of NaOH react with 1 mole of H2SO4

Now, moles of NaOH

=0.00391×21(mol)=0.00782(mol)

Hence, moles of H2SO4 are 0.00782mol.

04

Calculation of molarity of NaOH

According to the question,

Volume of NaOH = 18.4mL = 0.0184L

Again you know,

Molarity=molesvolume

Now, molarity of NaOH

=0.007820.0184(M)=0.425(M)

Hence, molarity of NaOH is 0.425M.

05

Balanced equation for NaOH - HCl titration 

The balanced equation is

NaOH(aq)+HCl(aq)→NaCl(aq)+H2O(l)

06

Calculation of moles of NaOH is required to titrate HCl

According to the question,

Volume of NaOH required = 27.5mL = 0.0275L

Molarity of NaOH calculated = 0.425M

Again you know,

Moles=molarity×volume

Now, moles of NaOH

=(0.425×0.0275)(mol)=0.01169(mol)

Hence, moles of NaOH required to titrate HCl are 0.01169mol.

07

Calculation of moles of HCl

According to the balanced equation

NaOH(aq)+HCl(aq)→NaCl(aq)+H2O(l)

2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of HCl

Now, moles of HCl

=0.01169×11(mol)=0.01169(mol)

Hence, moles of HCl are 0.01169mol.

08

Calculation of molarity of HCl

According to the question,

Volume of HCl = 100mL = 0.1L

Again you know,

Molarity=molesvolume

Now, molarity of HCl

=0.011690.1(M)=0.1169(M)

Hence, molarity of HCl is 0.1169M.

09

Conclusion

Hence, molarity of NaOH is 0.425M and molarity of HCl is 0.1169M.
