4.86 An 8.65-g sample of an unknown group 2 metal hydroxide is dissolved in 85.0 mL of water. An acid-base indicator is added and the resulting solution is titrated with 2.50 M HCl(aq) solution. The indicator changes color, signaling that the equivalence point has been reached, after 56.9 mL of the hydrochloric acid solution has been added. (a) What is the molar mass of the metal hydroxide? (b) What is the identity of the metal cation: Ca2+, Sr2+, or Ba²+?

copper (II) ion is precipitated from solution by adding 3.00 M NaOH(aq) resulting in a blue precipitate. What volume in milliliters would be necessary to fully precipitate the copper (II) ion from 100.0 mL of a 0.288 M solution of copper (II) nitrate.
One way the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) tests for chloride contaminants in water is by titrating a sample of silver nitrate solution. Any chloride anions in solution will combine with the silver cations to produce bright white silver chloride precipitate, Suppose an EPA chemist tests a 200 mL sample of groundwater known to be contaminated with iron(III) chloride, which would react with silver nitrate solution like this: FeCl,(aq) + 3 AgNO,(aq) 3 AgCl(s) + Fe(NO₂),(ag) The chemist adds 21.0 mM silver nitrate solution to the sample until silver chloride stops forming. He then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate. He finds he has collected 3.3 mg of silver chloride. Calculate the concentration of iron(III) chloride contaminant in the original groundwater sample. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. e -12 D.P C P
The concentration of a certain sodium hydroxide solution was determined by using the solution to titrate a sample of potassium hydrogen phthalate (abbreviated as KHP). KHP is an acid with one acidic hydrogen and a molar mass of 204.22 g/mol. In the titration, 28.16 mL of the sodium hydroxide solution was required to react with 0.5040 g KHP. Calculate the molarity of the sodium hydroxide
