The reaction of citric acid and NaOH is \(\mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{O}_{7}(\mathrm{aq})+3 \mathrm{NaOH}(\mathrm{aq}) \rightarrow\) $$ \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{O}_{7}(\mathrm{aq})+3 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\ell) $$

Problem 107

Sodium thiosulfate, \(\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{S}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3},\) is used as a "fixer" in black-and-white photography. Suppose you have a botule of sodium thiosulfate and want to determine its purity. The thiosulfate ion can be oxidized with \(\mathrm{I}_{2}\) according to the balanced, net ionic equation $$ \mathrm{I}_{2}(\mathrm{aq})+2 \mathrm{S}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3}^{2-}(\mathrm{aq}) \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{I}^{-}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{S}_{4} \mathrm{O}_{6}^{2-}(\mathrm{aq}) $$ If you use \(40.21 \mathrm{mL}\) of \(0.246 \mathrm{M} \mathrm{I}_{2}\) in a titration, what is the weight percent of \(\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{S}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3}\) in a \(3.232-\mathrm{g}\) sample of impure material?

Problem 108

You have a mixture of oxalic acid, \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{4},\) and another solid that does not react with sodium hydroxide. If \(29.58 \mathrm{mL}\) of \(0.550 \mathrm{M} \mathrm{NaOH}\) is required to titrate the oxalic acid in the 4.554 -g sample to the second equivalence point, what is the mass percent of oxalic acid in the mixture? Oxalic acid and NaOH react according to the equation \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{4}(\mathrm{aq})+2 \mathrm{NaOH}(\mathrm{aq}) \rightarrow\) $$ \mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{4}(\mathrm{aq})+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\ell) $$
