Answer:
11.6mL of the 0.1400M NaOH solution
Explanation:
0.154g of chloroacetic acid diluted to 250mL. Titrated wit 0.1400M NaOH solution.
The reaction of chloroacetic acid, ClCH₂COOH (Molar mass: 94.5g/mol) with NaOH is:
ClCH₂COOH + NaOH → ClCH₂COO⁻ + Na⁺ + H₂O
Where 1 mole of the acid reacts per mole of the base.
That means the student will reach equivalence point when moles of chloroacetic acid = moles NaOH.
You will titrate the 0.154g of ClCH₂COOH. In moles (Using molar mass) are:
0.154g ₓ (1mol / 94.5g) = 1.63x10⁻³ moles of ClCH₂COOH
To reach equivalence point, the student must add 1.63x10⁻³ moles of NaOH. These moles comes from:
1.63x10⁻³ moles of NaOH ₓ (1L / 0.1400moles NaOH) = 0.0116L of the 0.1400M NaOH =
