2 – CONCENTRATION OF SOLUTION AN SOLUTION STOICHIOMETRY

Instructions: Solve the following using GRESA.

1. Calculate the volume (in mL) of 2.25 M HNO3 solution required to react with 24.2 mL of 3.50
M NaOH solution.

NaOH + HNO3 → NaNO3 + H 2 O

Millimoles of NaOH reacted = 3.50 ( mmol

ml )
( 24.2mL )=84.7 mmol

Millimoles of HNO 3 required = 84.7 mmol

84.7 mmol
=37 .6 m
Volume of HNO3 required = mmol L
2.25
ml

2. What volume in mL of 4.35 M HCl solution is needed to react with 18.5 g of Ca(OH) 2 ?

2 HCl+ Ca(OH )2 → CaCl2+ 2 H 2 O

Ca(OH )2=74.2 g/mol

(18.5 g )
=0. 2497 mol
Millimoles of Ca(OH )2 reacted =
74.2
g
mol ( )
Millimoles of HCl needed = (0.2497 mol) ( 2 )=0.4994 mol∨0.5 mol

( 0.5 mol ) ( 1000 )

Volume of HCl needed = =114 . 94 mL
4.35

3. How many grams of Ag2CrO4 will precipitate when 86 mL of 0.200 M AgNO 3 is added to 50 mL
of 0.3 M K2CrO4 ?

2 AgNO 3+ K 2 CrO 4 → Ag2 CrO 4 +2 KNO 3

( (
M ( Ag2 CrO 4 )= ( 2 ) 107. 868
g
mol )) (
Ag + 51.996
g
mol
Cr + ( 4 ) 15.999)( (
g
mol
O =331.74 ))
g Ag2 CrO 4
m Ag2 CrO 4

Moles of AgNO3 reacted = 0.2 ( mol

L )( 100086 L )=0.0172mol
Moles of Ag2 CrO 4 precipitated = (0.0172 mol) ( 12 )=0.0086 mol
Mass of Ag2 CrO 4 precipitated = ( 0.0086 mol ) 331.74 ( g
mol )
=2. 85 g
