Calculate the molarity of a oxalic acid solution, C2O4H2, if 50.00 mL of the oxalic acid solution is titrated with 42.12 mL of 0.09846 M KOH. Report your answer to the correct number of significant figures!
C2O4H2 (aq) + 2 KOH (aq) --%26gt; K2C2O4 (aq) + 2 H2O (l)How do I work this titrate question?
C2O4H2 (aq) + 2 KOH (aq) --%26gt; K2C2O4 (aq) + 2 H2O (l)
from the equation u can c that for every 1 mole of oxalic acid u need 2 moles of KOH.
1000ml of KOH contains 0.09846
so 42.12 ml will contain 0.09846 *42.12/1000= X
X/2 is the no. of moles in 50ml of oxalic acid.
so X*1000/(50*2)
=10X.
so 10X is the molarity of the oxalic acid.
abt the significat no. i dont remember the rules. so u better look it up sum book or the net.How do I work this titrate question?
