QUESTION 1
(1a)
TABULATE PLEASE
Burette | Rough| 1st | 2nd
Final reading(cm³) | 19.00 | 18.10| 18.10|
Initial reading(cm³) | 0.00| 0.00| 0.00
Volume of A used(cm³) | 19.00| 18.10| 18.10|
Average titre = 18.10+18.10/2
= 18.10cm³
(1bi)
Conc. of B in mol/dm³ = ??
Ca = 0.200mol/dm³, Va = 18.10cm³
Na= 1, Nb = 5, Vb= 25.00cm³ , Cb= ??
CaVa/CbVb= Na/Nb
Cb = CaVaNa/VbNb
Cb= (0.200*18.10*5)/(25.0*1)
Cb= 0.724mol/dm³
(1bii)
Con. of B in g/dm³ = ??
Con.(g/dm³) = Mass*1000/volume
= 3.8*1000/250
= 15.2g/dm³
(1biii)
FeSO₄<—> Fe²⁺ + SO₄²⁻
1 mol of FeSO₄ 1mol Fe²⁺
0.724mol/dm³ xmol/dm Fe²⁺
x= 1*0.724 = 0.724mol/dm³
Mole= Con.*Vol/1000
Mole = 0.724*250/1000
Mole= 0.181mol
Mass= mole * m.m
= 0.181*56
= 10.136g
(1biv)
Percentage= 10.136*100/15.2
= 66.7%
======================================================
QUESTION 2
(2a)
When all of C is added to a test tube with about 10cm³ of distilled water and shaken, the mixture is filtered. The residue and the filtrate are obtained.
Observations:
The residue: This will contain the insoluble salt(s) present in C.
The filtrate: This will contain the soluble salt(s) present in C.
(2bi)
Heating about 2cm³ of the filtrate in a boiling tube strongly.
Observations:
If there is effervescence (bubbling), it indicates the presence of a carbonate salt in the filtrate.
The gas evolved is likely carbon dioxide (CO₂).
(2bii)
Adding dilute HCl to half of the residue in a test tube.
Observations:
If there is effervescence (bubbling), it indicates the presence of a carbonate salt in the residue.
The gas evolved is likely carbon dioxide (CO₂).
(2biii)
Adding aqueous NaOH in drops, then in excess, to about 2cm³
Observations:
If a white precipitate forms upon adding NaOH drops, and it dissolves upon excess addition of NaOH, it indicates the presence of a metal hydroxide in the solution.
(2biv)
Adding aqueous ammonia in drops, then in excess, to another 2cm³ of the clear solution from (ii).
Observations:
If a colored precipitate forms upon adding ammonia drops, and it dissolves upon excess ammonia addition, it indicates the presence of a metal hydroxide in the solution.
