Consider the following: 50 mL of a 1.067 M solution of HCI was diluted to 250 mL. The diluted HCI solution was then titrated with an unknown concentration of KOH. It is found that an average volume of 24.20 mL of KOH is required to reach an endpoint in a titration with 25.00 mL of the dilute acid solution. The equation for the reaction is; H* (aq) + OH(aq)-> H₂O (1) What is the concentration of the dilute HCI solution used in the titration?
States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
