Fill in the blanks: An environmental chemist analyzed the effluent from an industrial process known to produce the compounds carbon tetrachloride (CCI4) and benzoic acid (HC7H502), a weak acid that has one acidic hydrogen atom per molecule. A sample of this effluent weighing 0.3518 g was shaken with water and the resulting aqueous solution required 10.59 mL of 0.1546 M NaOH for neutralization. Calculate the mass percent of HC7H5O2 in the sample.

You prepare a standard NaOH solution for the laboratory, using potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHC,H,O,, abbreviated KHP) as the primary standard. KHP (molar mass = 204.22 g/mol) has one acidic hydrogen. It took 31.55 mL of the NaOH solution to titrate (react exactly with) 0.750 g KHP. You then use the standard base solution to determine the amount of ascorbic acid in a 500.0 mg tablet of vitamin C. Ascorbic acid (HC̟H,O, molar mass 176.12 g/mol) also has one acidic hydrogen, and is usually mixed with some filler in preparing the tablets. It requires 19.14 mL of the NaOH to titrate (react exactly with) the ascorbic acid found in one 500.0 mg tablet. What is the percent vitamin C by mass in the tablet?
A chemistry student needs to standardize a fresh solution of sodium hydroxide. She carefully weighs out 233. mg of oxalic acid (H₂C₂O4), a diprotic acid that can be purchased inexpensively in high purity, and dissolves it in 250. mL of distilled water. The student then titrates the oxalic acid solution with her sodium hydroxide solution. When the titration reaches the equivalence point, the student finds she has used 63.2 mL of sodium hydroxide solution. Calculate the molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
You have been provided with a 2.08 x 10-2 L sample of lithium hydroxide (LiOH) of unknown concentration. You perform a titration with 2.19 M nitric acid (HNO3), and find that 24.6 mL are required to reach the equivalence point (as determined using a coloured indicator). What is the concentration of the lithium hydroxide solution in mol L-1?
A chemistry student needs to standardize a fresh solution of sodium hydroxide. He carefully weighs out 30. mg of oxalic acid (H,C,0,), a diprotic acid that can be purchased inexpensively in high purity, and dissolves it in 250. mL of distilled water. The student then titrates the oxalic acid solution with his sodium hydroxide solution. When the titration reaches the equivalence point, the student finds he has used 62.3 mL of sodium hydroxide solution. Calculate the molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide solution. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. x10
A student prepares a dilute solution of sodium hydroxide, NaOH (aq), starting with 6 M sodium hydroxide. She then titrates a 1.372 g sample of KHP with the dilute sodium hydroxide solution, NaOH (aq), to a phenolphthalein end point. A.) If the titration required 21.84 mL of sodium hydroxide, NaOH (aq), calculate the molar concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution, NaOH (aq). (Remember that KHP is potassium hydrogen phthalate, KHC8H4O4, NOT potassium hydrogen phosphorus!) B.) The student uses the same sodium hydroxide to titrate 10.00 mL of vinegar to a phenolphthalein end point. If the titration required 27.48 mL of sodium hydroxide, NaOH (aq), calculate the molar concentration of acetic acid, HC2H3O2 (aq), in the vinegar. C.) Calculate the mass percent of acetic acid, HC2H3O2 (aq), in the vinegar using the molar concentration for acetic acid, HC2H3O2 (aq), determined in part b and assuming the density of the solution is 1.01 g/mL.
