Solution

Dear Student,

The computation is expressed below,

PV=nRTn=PVRT=0.947×60.08057×298=0.23665 molmolar mass of sodium carbonate = 106 gmolmolar mass of sodium bicarbonate = 84 gmolmass of sodium carbonate = 106 gmol×0.23665 mol=25.08492=12.54 gmass of sodium bicarbonate = 84 gmol×0.23665 mol=19.87862=9.94 g
Regards.
