Question

A solution contains Na2CO3 and NaOH. Using phenolphthalein as an indicator, 25 mL of a mixture requires 19.5 mL of 0.005 N HCl for the end point. If methyl orange is the indicator, then 25 mL of the solution requires 25.9 of the same HCl for end point. The concentration of NaOH substance in g per litre is (write it as 0.23=2 (only single digit)) :

Solution

Meq. of HCl for 35 mL mixture using phenolphthalein indicator =19.5×0.005=0.0975
Meq. of NaOH + 12 Meq. of Na2CO3=0.0975 ...(i)
Now, meq. of HCl used for 25 mL mixture using methyl orange as indicator =25.9×0.005=0.1295...(ii)
By eqs. (i) and (ii), we get meq. of NaOH =0.0655
w40×1000=0.0655
Mass of NaOH= 2.62×103g/25
Strength of NaOH = 0.1048g/litre
and answer is 1.
Also,
Meq. of Na2CO3=0.064
w106/2×1000=0.064
Mass of Na2CO3=3.392×103g/25 mL
Strength of Na2CO3=0.1357g/litre
