1. 2.5g of a mixture of sodium carbonate and sodium chloride was made up to 250𝑐𝑚3 of
solution. 25𝑐𝑚3 of this solution required 20𝑐𝑚3 of 0.1M hydrochloric acid for neutralization.
Calculate the percentage by mass of sodium chloride in the mixture. (C=12, O=16, Na=23)
2. An organic acid acetic acid (ethanoic acid) H𝐶2 𝐻3 𝑂2 is the main constituent of vinegar
solution. When 8g of vinegar was titrated with 0.10M sodium hydroxide 60.0𝑐𝑚3 of this
base had to be added to reach the equivalent point. What is the percentage by mass of
acetic acid in this sample of vinegar? (H=1, C=12, O=16)
3. 0.36g of magnesium was dissolved in 50𝑐𝑚3 of 1M hydrochloric acid. How many cubic
centimetres of 0.2M potassium hydroxide solution will be necessary to neutralize the excess
acid? (Mg=24)
4. How many grams of sulphur would be precipitated on mixing 5𝑑𝑚3 of sulphur dioxide with
15 𝑑𝑚3 hydrogen sulphide if both gases were originally at 25˚C and 750mmHg?
5. 100𝑐𝑚3 of hydrochloric acid solution is diluted to 1𝑑𝑚3 with distilled water. If 26.8𝑐𝑚3 of
this diluted acid is needed to neutralize 25𝑐𝑚3 of 0.5M sodium carbonate solution. Calculate
the molarity of original solution?
6. Calculate the molarity of a sodium carbonate solution prepared by adding 50g of pure
sodium carbonate and sufficient water to make 1.5𝑑𝑚3 solutions.21𝑐𝑚3 of this solution was
needed to neutralize 24.5𝑐𝑚3 of sulphuric acid solution. What is the concentration of
sulphuric acid solution? (C=12, O=16, S=32, H=1, Na=23)
7. 7g of a mixture of anhydrous sodium sulphate and sodium sulphate decahydrate on heating
to constant mass produces 5.2g of anhydrous salt. What percentages of anhydrous and
hydrated salts are present in the mixture?
8. 25𝑐𝑚3 of 0.1M sodium carbonate solution required 22𝑐𝑚3 of sulphuric acid to neutralize it.
(i) Calculate the molar concentration of sulphuric acid.
(ii) What volume of water be added to 22𝑐𝑚3 of sulphuric acid so that concentration
becomes exactly 0.1M? (C=12, Na=23, O=16)
