In the titration of 50. 0 mL of 0. 400 M HCOOH with 0. 150 M LiOH, how many mL of LiOH are required to reach the equivalence point

Sagot :

Eduard22sly

The volume of the 0.15 M LiOH solution required to react with 50 mL of 0.4 M HCOOH to the equivalence point is 133.3 mL

Balanced equation

HCOOH + LiOH —> HCOOLi + H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

The mole ratio of the acid, HCOOH (nA) = 1

The mole ratio of the base, LiOH (nB) = 1

How to determine the volume of LiOH

  • Molarity of acid, HCOOH (Ma) = 0.4 M
  • Volume of acid, HCOOH (Va) = 50 mL
  • Molarity of base, LiOH (Mb) = 0.15 M
  • Volume of base, LiOH (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(0.4 × 50) / (0.15 × Vb) = 1

20 / (0.15 × Vb) = 1

Cross multiply

0.15 × Vb = 20

Divide both side by 0.15

Vb = 20 / 0.15

Vb = 133.3 mL

Thus, the volume of the LiOH solution needed is 133.3 mL
