Chapter 7, Problem 9CI

Oxalic acid, a compound found in plants and vegetables such as rhubarb, has a mass percent composition of 26.7% C. 2.24% H. and 71.1% O. Oxalic acid can interfere with respiration and cause kidney or bladder stones. If a large quantity of rhubarb leaves is ingested, the oxalic acid can be toxic. The lethal dose (LD50) in rats for oxalic acid is 375 mg/kg. Rhubarb leaves contain about 0.5% by mass of oxalic acid. (2.7, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6)

Chapter 7, Problem 9CI, Oxalic acid, a compound found in plants and vegetables such as rhubarb, has a mass percent

Rhubarb leaves are a source of oxalic acid.

  1. What is the empirical formula of oxalic acid?
  2. if oxalic acid has an experimental molar mass of 90. g. what is its molecular formula?
  3. Using the LD50, how many grams of oxalic acid would be toxic for a 160-lb person?
  4. How many kilograms of rhubarb leaves would the person in part c need to eat to reach the toxic level of oxalic acid?
