QJEEM21Ch75af: JEE Main 2021 Chemistry - Class 11 JEEM21Ch75af Solution: 10.0 mL of Na 2 CO 3 solution is titrated against 0.2 M HCl…

10.0 mL of Na2CO3 solution is titrated against 0.2 M HCl solution. The following titre values were obtained in 5 readings :

4.8 mL, 4.9 mL, 5.0 mL, 5.0 mL and 5.0 mL

Based on these readings, and convention of titrimetric estimation the concentration of Na2CO3 solution is ___________ mM.

(Round off to the Nearest Integer).

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

From the given value of HCl, it is clear that most appropriate volume of HCl used is 5 ml because it occurs most number of times.

Na2CO3 + 2 HCl → 2 NaCl + CO2 + H2O

n factor of Na2CO3 = 2

n factor of HCl = 1

equivalent of Na2CO3 = equivalent of HCl

⇒ 101000×2×M=51000×1×0.2

⇒M=120M

= 0.05 M

= 50 × 10−3 M

= 50 mM
