how many mole of sodium bicarbonate are needed to neutrilize 0.08 ml of sulphuric acid
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
The density of 100% concentrated sulfuric acid can be looked up and is 1.8391 g/mL. So, with 0.8 mL you would have:
0.8 mL * 1.8391 g/mL = 1.471 g
Now, convert this to moles
1.471 g / 98 g/mol H2SO4 = 0.0150 moles
The neutralization reaction is
2NaHCO3 + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + 2H2CO3
2H2CO3 → 2H2O + 2CO2
Overall, the reaction is
2NaHCO3 + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + 2H2O + 2CO2
The stoichiometry says you need two moles of NaHCO3 for every mole of sulfuric acid. So, you will need
0.0150 mole H2SO4 * 2 NaHCO3/1H2SO4 = 0.03 mole NaHCO3
The answer is 0.0028 moles.
GIVEN
Volume of sulphuric acid = 0.08 ml
TO FIND
Moles of sodium carbonate to neutralise 0.08ml of sulphuric acid.
SOLUTION
We can simply solve the above problem as follows;
Volume of sulphuric acid = 0.08ml
Density of sulphuric acid = 1.83 g/cm³
we know that,
Density = Mass/Volume
Mass = Density × Volume = 1.83 × 0.08 = 0.14 grams
Moles of H₂SO₄ = 0.14/98 = 0.0014 moles.
Now,
Neutralisation reaction of H₂SO₄
H₂SO₄ + 2NaHCO₃ --------> Na₂SO₄ + H₂O + CO₂
We can observe that 2 moles of NaHCO₃ are required for 1 mole of H₂SO₄.
Therefore,
0.0014 moles of H₂SO₄ will require, 2 × 0.0014 = 0.0028 moles.
Hence, The answer is 0.0028 moles.
