Question

500mL of 2MHCl.100mL of 2MH2SO4 and one g equivalent of a monoacidic alkali are mixed together. 30mL of this solution required 20mL of Na2CO3.xH2O solution obtained by dissolving 143gNa2CO3.xH2O in one litre solution. Calculate water of crystallisation of Na2CO3.xH2O.

Solution

500 ml of 2M HCl +100ml of 2M H2SO4

Total milliequivalents of Hydronium ion will be 500 x 2 + 100 x 4{since H2SO4 will give 2 H+} = 1400milliequivalents = 1.4 equivalents

The equivalents of OH added in form of Monobasic alkali=1

Net after neutralization will be 0.4 equivalents of Hydronium ion.

30ml of this solution required 20ml of 143gm Na2CO3.xH2O in one-litre solution.

Now just equate both milliequivalents.

We know,

2H++Na2CO3NaOH+CO2

THAT MEANS 2 HYDRONIUM IONS ARE NEEDED FOR EACH Na2CO3 MOLECULE

n factor for Na2CO3 is 2.

Molarity of Na2CO3 = 143106+18x

Normality = M x n factor =2M

0.4×30mL=2×143106+18x×20

x = 10
