Chapter 1, Problem 1.36P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The volume of $3.00M{\text{ H}}_2{\text{SO}}_4$ required to react with $4.35g$ of solid containing   $23.2\text{ \% wt }Ba{(N{O}_3)}_2$ required for the reaction given below has to be calculated.

$B{a}^{2+}{\text{ + SO}}_4^{2-}\stackrel{}{\to }{\text{ BaSO}}_4(s)$

Concept introduction:

Mass percent is one of parameters used to express concentration of a solution.  It is expressed as,

$\text{Mass percent of a solute = }\frac{mass\text{ of solute}}{mass\text{ of solution}}\times \text{ 100\%}$
