Question
Acetic acid solutions called "cleaning vinegar" are effective in dissolving calcium carbonate deposits on shower tiles. What sample size of 0.9181M cleaning vinegar would require 27.50 mL of 0-5185M NaOH for neutralization? Muriatic acid is a concentrated HCI solution available in the hardware department of some stores. What maw of baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate, NaHCO_3 would be required to neutralize 10.00 mL of 12.1M muriatic acid remaining in a nearly empty bottle, so that the solution could be safely poured into the drain, and the bottle recycled? The reaction of NaHCO_3 with HO is shown in Equation 6. HCI(aq) + NaHCO_3 (aq) rightarrow NaC(aq) + CO_2 (g) + H_2 O(l)Explanation / Answer
Q3.
NaOH + CH3COOH <-> H2O + NaCH3COO
so
mmol of acid = mmol of base
mmol of base = MV = 27.50*0.5185 = 14.25875 mmol of OH-
mmol of acid = 14.25875 mmol
so
Vacid = mol/M = 14.25875/0.9181 = 15.530 mL of acid will be required
Q4.
mass of Baking soda for:
mmol of acid = MV = 10*12.1 = 121 mmol of acid
mmol of base = mmol of acid = 121 mmol
mass = mmol*MW = (121)*84.007 = 10164.847 mg of baking soda
mass = 10.164 g of baking soda
