Chapter 12, Problem 32E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The concentrated form of hydrochloric acid consists of $37.0\%$

$\text{HCl}$ by mass and density is $1.20\text{g}/\text{mL}$ . The amount of hydrochloric acid required for the preparation of $2.85\text{L}$ of $0.500\text{M}$

$\text{HCl}$ from concentrated solution is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: The molarity of the concentrated solution is calculated by the formula,

  $M=\frac{d}{M}\times P_{\%}$

To determine: The amount of hydrochloric acid required for the preparation of $2.85\text{L}$ of $0.500\text{M}$

$\text{HCl}$ from concentrated solution.
