How many grams of sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate, Na,S,0,.5H,0, are needed to make 500.0 mL of 0.080M- Na2S,03? Show your work! molar mass Nazmo3:159,775 ginal

Explanation / Answer

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction:

1) KIO3(aq)+6H+(aq)+5I-(aq)----->3I2(aq)+3H2O(l)+K+(aq)

2) C6H8O6(aq)+I2(aq)--->C6H6O6(aq)+2I-(aq)+2H+(aq)

C6H8O6,ascorbic acid or vit C

Q3)mol KIO3=0.040L*0.02912mol/L=0.00116 mol

mol KI=2g/166.003g/mol=0.012 mol

KI and KIO3 react in molar ratio of 5:1 according to the balanced quation,

So mol(KI)/mol(KIO3)=5:1

mol(KI)=5*mol(KIO3)=5*0.00116 mol=0.0058

excess KI=0.012mol-0.0058mol=0.0062 mol=0.0062mol*(10^-3mmol/mol)=6.2mmol

excess KI=6.2mmol

Thus,KI is the excess reactant and KIO3 is the limiting reactant

2) molar mass of Na2S2O3.5H2O=248.184 g/mol

mol of Na2S2O3.5H2O=0.5L*0.08 mol/L=0.04mol

mass of Na2S2O3.5H2O=mol*molar mass=0.04mol*(248.184 g/mol)=9.927 g
