solute and a solvent.
Solute : substance that dissolves in solvent
Solvent : liquid present in excess in which
dispersion occurs

4. Question : Calculate the mass of NaOH needed to
prepare a solution of 250.0 cm3 of 0.500 M
solution?
Answer :
n = mV/1000
= 250.0 (0.5000) = 0.1250 mol
1000
Mass of NaOH = n x Mr
= 0.1250 x (22.99 + 16.00 + 1.01)
= 4.999g
5. A solution is made containing 2.38g of MgCl2

8. A titration is a lab procedure
where a measured volume
of one solution (burette) is
added to a known volume &
concentration (flask) of
another solution until the
reaction is complete.
9. A standard is a solution of precisely known
concentration
It must be available in a highly pure state
It must be stable in air
It must dissolve easily in water
It should have a fairly high relative molecular
wt
It should under go a complete and rapid
reaction
10. 25 cm3 of NaOH aq. required 28 cm3 of 1M H2SO4
aq. for complete neutralization.
Write a balanced eqn. for the rxn.
How many moles of the acid were used to neutralize
the NaOH?
How many moles of the alkali were neutralized?
How many moles of the alkali are there in 25 cm3 of
solution?
What is the molarity of the sodium hydroxide?
11. 27.82g of hydrated sodium carbonate crystals,
Na2CO3.xH2O were dissolved in water and made up to
1.000 dm3. 25.00cm3 of this solution were neutralized by
48.80 cm3 of HCl of concentration 0.1000 moldm-3.
