d. Concentration of H3PO4 (to 3dp): Answer____-


ii. If a 10ml aliquot of the H3PO4 solution was diluted to 100ml. What would be the new concentration of the solution (to 4dp) ?

Respuesta :

1a. The balanced equation for the reaction is:

3Ca(OH)₂ + 2H₃PO₄ —> Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6H₂O

1b. The number of mole of Ca(OH)₂ is 0.0247 mole  

1c. The number of mole of H₃PO₄ is 0.0165 mole.

1d. The concentration of H₃PO₄ is 0.432 mol/L

2. The new concentration of the H₃PO₄ solution is 0.0432 mol/L

1a. The balanced equation for the reaction

3Ca(OH)₂ + 2H₃PO₄ —> Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6H₂O

1b. Determination of the mole of Ca(OH)₂

Volume of Ca(OH)₂ = 71 mL = 71 / 1000 = 0.071 L

Concentration of Ca(OH)₂ = 0.348 mol/L

Mole of Ca(OH)₂ =?

Mole = Concentration × Volume

Mole = 0.348 × 0.071

Mole of Ca(OH)₂ = 0.0247 mole

1c. Determination of the mole of H₃PO₄.

3Ca(OH)₂ + 2H₃PO₄ —> Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of Ca(OH)₂ reacted with 2 moles of H₃PO₄.

Therefore,

0.0247 moles of Ca(OH)₂ will react with = [tex]\frac{0.0247 * 2}{3}[/tex] = 0.0165 mole of H₃PO₄.

Thus, the number of mole of H₃PO₄ is 0.0165 mole

1d. Determination of the concentration of H₃PO₄

Volume of H₃PO₄ = 38.20 mL = 38.20/ 1000 = 0.0382 L

Mole of H₃PO₄ = 0.0165 mole

Concentration of H₃PO₄ =?

[tex]Concentration = \frac{mole}{volume} \\\\Concentration = \frac{0.0165}{0.0382}[/tex]

Concentration of H₃PO₄ = 0.432 mol/L

2. Determination of the new concentration of the H₃PO₄ solution.

Initial Volume (V₁) = 10 mL

Initial concentration (C₁) = 0.432 mol/L

New volume (V₂) = 100 mL

New concentration (C₂) =?

The new concentration of the H₃PO₄ solution can be obtained as follow:

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

0.432 × 10 = C₂ × 100

4.32 = C₂ × 100

Divide both side by 100

C₂ = [tex]\frac{4.32}{100}\\[/tex]

C₂ = 0.0432 mol/L

Therefore, the new concentration of the H₃PO₄ solution is 0.0432 mol/L
