If the concentration of the HCl used in your titration was 1.00 M and you used 23.68 mL to reach the endpoint, calculate the concentration of hydroxide (OH-) ions in the 25.00 mL titrated sample of Ca(OH)2 solution.

Respuesta :

Answer: The concentration of the OH-, CB = 0.473 M.

Explanation:

The balanced equation of reaction is:

2HCl + Ca(OH)2 ===> CaCl2 + 2H2O

Using titration equation of formula

CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB

Where NA is the number of mole of acid = 2 (from the balanced equation of reaction)

NB is the number of mole of base = 1 (from the balanced equation of reaction)

CA is the concentration of acid = 1M

CB is the concentration of base = to be calculated

VA is the volume of acid = 23.65 ml

VB is the volume of base = 25mL

Substituting

1×23.65/CB×25 = 2/1

Therefore CB =1×23.65×1/25×2

CB = 0.473 M.

The concentration of OH- = 0.473 M.

Balanced chemical equation:

2HCl + Ca(OH)₂ →  CaCl₂ + 2H₂O

Dilution formula:

[tex]C_A*V_A/C_B*V_B = N_A/N_B[/tex]

Where,

[tex]N_A[/tex] is the number of mole of acid = 2

[tex]N_B[/tex] is the number of mole of base = 1

[tex]C_A[/tex] is the concentration of acid = 1M

[tex]C_B[/tex] is the concentration of base = to be calculated

[tex]V_A[/tex] is the volume of acid = 23.65 ml

[tex]V_B[/tex] is the volume of base = 25mL

On substituting the values:

[tex]1*23.65/C_B*25 = 2/1\\\\C_B =1*23.65*1/25*2\\\\C_B = 0.473 M[/tex]

Thus, the concentration of OH- = 0.473 M.
