A 34.00 mL sample of an H2SO4 solution of unknown concentration is titrated with a 0.1322 M KOH solution. A volume of 43.22 mL of KOH was required to reach the equivalence point.
What is the concentration of the unknown H2SO4H2SO4 solution?
Express your answer using four significant figures.
H2SO4 + 2KOH K2SO4 + 2H2O
Data:
VH2SO4 = 34 mL
MH2SO4 = ?
VKOH = 43.22 mL
MKOH = 0.1322 M
We transform the milliliters into liters for the calculation of the concentration
The formula for calculating the concentration is as follows:
The moles of the above formula are determined:
molKOH = 0.1322mol/L * 0.04322L = 0.005714 mol of KOH
0.005714 mol KOH * 1 mol H2SO4 / 2 mol KOH = 0.002857 mol of H2SO4
M = 0.002857 mol H2SO4 / 0.034 L = 0.08402 M of H2SO4
