Answer:
4.15 g of an acid are dissolved in water and volume of solution is made 500 ml by
adding water. 20 ml of N/10 Naoh solution for neutralization
Explanation:
Concept:
The amount of solute in a solution measured in grams or moles per liter is referred to as normality. The amount of moles of reactive units in a compound is known as normality. It is frequently referred to as the equivalent concentration of a solution and is abbreviated as "N".
Given:
The mass of an acid = 4.15 g
The volume of solution = 500 mL
The volume of sodium hydroxide solution = 20 mL
The normality of sodium hydroxide solution = N/10
Find:
Find the molar mass of the acid used in the neutralization reaction.
Solution:
Applying the normality equation,
N₁V₁ = N₂V₂
(Acid) (NaOH)
By substituting the given values in the above expression we can get the normality of acid solution.
N₁ * 500 mL = 1/10 * 20 mL
N₁ = (1/10 N * 20 mL) / 500 mL
N₁ = (20 / 500) N
N₁ = 0.04 N
Hence, the normality of the acid solution is 0.04 N.
The mass of acid in 500 mL solution = 4.15 g
Normality = mass of acid / (equivalent mass * Volume of solution in L)
0.04 N = 4.15 g /(equivalent mass * 500 * 10⁻³ L)
Equivalent mass = 4.15 g / (0.04 g/L * 0.5 L)
Equivalent mass = (4.15 / 0.02) = 207.5
The molar mass of the acid can be calculated as:
Molar mass = Mass of acid in g / Equivalent mass of acid
Molar mass = 4.15 g / 207.5
Molar mass = 0.02 g/mol
Hence, the molar mass of acid is 0.02 g/mol.
