Chapter 16, Problem 112E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The normality of perchloric acid with volume $\text{29}\text{.3 mL}$ when titrated with $\text{34}\text{.3 mL}$ of $\text{0}\text{.248 N }$ potassium hydroxide is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

An acid base reaction is one of the types of reaction which is known as neutralization reaction. Normality is used to express the concentration of any solution. Equation which equates the equivalents of an acid and a base is given below

$\underset{\text{equivalents of acid }}{\underbrace{{\text{N}}_{\text{1}}{\text{V}}_1}}=\underset{\text{equivalents of base }}{\underbrace{{\text{N}}_{\text{2}}{\text{V}}_{\text{2}}}}$
