find the molarity and normality of a solution containing 4.9 grams of H2So4 present in 500 ml of solution
Answers
Given:-
→ Mass of H2SO4 = 4.9g
→ Volume of solution = 500 mL
To find:-
→ Molarity of the solution.
→ Normality of the solution.
Solution:-
• Molar mass of Hydrogen (H) = 1 g/mol
• Molar mass of Sulphur (S) = 32 g/mol
• Molar mass of Oxygen (O) = 16 g/mol
Hence, molar mass of H₂SO₄ :-
= 1×2 + 32 + 16×4
= 2 + 32 + 64
= 98 g/mol
Number of mole in 4.9g of H₂SO₄ :-
= Given Mass/Molar mass
= 4.9/98
= 0.05 mole
Now let's convert the unit of volume of solution.
=> 1 mL = 0.001 L
=> 500 mL = 500(0.001)
=> 0.5 L
Molarity of a solution :-
= Moles of solute/Liters of solution
= 0.05/0.5
= 0.1 M
Thus, molarity is 0.1M .
________________________________
∵ Basicity of H₂SO₄ = 2
∴ Equivalent mass of H₂SO₄ = 98/2 = 49g
Normailty of a solution :-
= Molarity × Mol.mass/Eq. mass
= 0.1×98/49
= 0.1×2
= 0.2 N
Thus, normality is 0.2N .
Answer:
Molarity of the solution will be 0.1 M
Normality of the solution will be 0.2N
