A 0.1355 g sample of dry, primary-standard Na2CO3 required 25.05 mL of HCl solution (at 23.3°C) to reach the end point. A blank titration with the same amount of indicatio required 0.04 mL. What is the concentration of the HCl solution at room temperature.
I think the answer should be .1022673 M but I'm having trouble figuring out the process of getting there. Please help.
Na2CO3 + 2HCl ------> 2NaCl + CO2 +H2O
1 mole 2 moles
no of moles of Na2CO3 = W/G.M.Wt
= 0.1355/106 =0.001278 moles
from the balanced equation
1 mole of Na2CO3 react with 2 moles of HCl
0.001278 moles of Na2CO3 react with = 2*0.001278/1 =0.002556 moles of HCl
molarity = no of moles/volume of solution L
volume of solution = 25.05ml = 0.02505 L
= 0.002556/0.02505 = 0.102035 M
