Mass of Antacid tablet(Mg(OH)​2 5g

Volume of 1M HCl 10ml(0.01dm​3​)

#moles oh HCl before neutralization (1×0.01)=0.01mole
Volume of 0.5M NaOH to neutralise HCl
AND Antacid mixture Initial 0 17 0
Volume/ml
Final 17 34.1 17.2
Volume/ml
Titre/ml 17 17.1 17.2
17+17.1+17.2
Average titre= 3
=17.1ml (0.0171 dm​3​)
# moles of NaOH after HCl neutralization (0.5 × 0.0171)=0.00855
1 NaOH + 1 HCl-------> NaCl + H​2​O Mole ratio= 1:1

Therefore # moles of HCl neutralised is 0.00855

#Moles of HCl reacted by Antacid = 0.01 – 0.00855 =0.00145moles
Mg(OH)​2​ + 2HCl-----> MgCl​2​ + 2H​2​O Mole ratio = 1:2
Therefore # moles of Mg(OH)​2​ is (0.00145/2)=0.000725moles
