Textbook Question
Chapter 4, Problem 82E
Potatoes can be peeled commercially by soaking them in a 3-M to 6-M solution of sodium hydroxide, then removing the loosened skins by spraying them with water. Does a sodium hydroxide solution have a suitable concentration if titration of 12.00 mL of the solution requires 30.6 mL of 1.65 M HCI to reach the end point?

Complete the following table. The only density needed is already given. Show your
calculations in a neat and easy-to-follow manner in the space below the table. All units
should be included and significant figures should be given close attention. Be sure to notice
that the amount of material should be in millimoles rather than moles, and the theoretical
mass of the product should in milligrams rather than grams.
