Meq. of HCl added in washing soda =50×1=50
Meq. of HCl used for Ba(OH2)= Meq. of Ba(OH2) =21.13×1.018×2=43.02
Meq. of HCl used for washing soda =50−43.02=6.98
Meq. of washing soda(Na2CO3)⋅xH2O=6.98
or, wM2×1000=6.98 ⟹1×2M×1000=6.98(∵w=1 g)
Therefore, M=286.5 g mol−1
Thus, molar mass of (Na2CO3)⋅xH2O =46+60+18x=106+18x 106+18x=286.5orx=10
Therefore, the degree of hydration =10
