0.0624 g of a solid, diprotic acid, H2X, is neutralized with 13.96 mL of 0.1051 M NaOH. What is the molar mass of the diprotic acid, H2X

Respuesta :

The molar mass of the diprotic acid, H₂X is 84.9 g/mol

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 13.96 mL of 0.1051 M NaOH. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume = 13.96 mL = 13.96 / 1000 = 0.01396 L

Molarity of NaOH = 0.1051 M

Mole of NaOH =?

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of NaOH = 0.1051 × 0.01396

Mole of NaOH = 0.00147 mole

  • Next, we shall determine the number of mole of the diprotic acid, H₂X required to react with 0.00147 mole of NaOH. This can be obtained as follow:

H₂X + 2NaOH —> Na₂X + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of NaOH reacted with 1 mole of H₂X.

Therefore,

0.00147 mole of NaOH will react with = 0.00147 / 2 = 0.000735 mole of H₂X.

  • Finally, we shall determine the molar mass of H₂X.

Mole of H₂X = 0.000735 mole

Mass of H₂X = 0.0624 g

Molar mass of H₂X =?

Molar mass = mass / mole

Molar mass of H₂X = 0.0624 / 0.000735

Molar mass of H₂X = 84.9 g/mol

Thus, the molar mass of the diprotic acid, H₂X is 84.9 g/mol
