the following solutions are added together: .5l of .5m hcl, 300 ml of .2m naoh, and 100ml of .4m ca(oh)2. calculate the concentration of the excess acid or base

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]C=0.122M[/tex]

Explanation:

Total volume:

[tex]V= 0.5 L + 0.3 L + 0.1 L=0.9 L[/tex]

Total acid (H+) moles:

[tex]n_{acid}=0.5 L * 0.5 mol/L=0.25 mol[/tex]

Total base (OH-) moles:

[tex]n_{base}=0.3 L*0.2 mol/L + 0.1 L*0.4mol/L*2=0.14mol[/tex]

Excess acid:

[tex]n_{ex}=0.25 mol - 0.14mol=0.11 mol[/tex]

Concentration:

[tex]C=\frac{0.11mol}{0.9L}=0.122M[/tex]
