A 430. ML solution of 0.230 M HBr(aq) is mixed with a solution of 225 mL of 0.350 M HClO4(aq). How many moles of H+(aq) are present in the final solution?

Respuesta :

Given:

volume of HBr = 430 ml = 0.430 L

Molarity of HBr = 0.230 M

Volume of HClO4 = 225 ml = 0.225 L

Molarity of HClO4 = 0.350 M

To determine:

Total moles of H+ when HBr and HClO4 are mixed

Explanation:

HBr and HClO4 are strong acids. Hence:

Concentration of H+ from HBr = 0.230 M

Concentration of H+ from HClO4 = 0.350 M

Now:

# moles of H+ from HBr = 0.430 L * 0.230 moles/L = 0.0989 moles

# moles of H+ from HClO4 = 0.225 L * 0.350 moles/L = 0.0788 moles

Total moles of H+ = 0.0989 + 0.0788 = 0.1777 moles

Ans: Total # moles of H+ is 0.178

The number of mole of Hydrogen ion H⁺ present in the final solution is 0.1777 mole

How to determine the mole of H⁺ in HBr

  • Volume = 430 mL = 430 / 1000 = 0.43 L
  • Molarity of HBr = 0.23 M
  • Mole of HBr =?

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of HBr = 0.23 × 0.43

Mole of HBr = 0.0989 mole

Dissociation equation

HBr(aq) —> H⁺(aq) + Br¯(aq)

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of HBr contains 1 mole of H⁺.

Therefore,

0.0989 mole of HBr will also contain 0.0989 mole of H⁺

How to determine the mole of H⁺ in HClO₄

  • Volume = 225 mL = 225 / 1000 = 0.225 L
  • Molarity of HClO₄ = 0.35 M
  • Mole of HClO₄ =?

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of HClO₄ = 0.35 × 0.225

Mole of HClO₄ = 0.07875 mole

Dissociation equation

HClO₄(aq) —> H⁺(aq) + ClO₄¯(aq)

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of HClO₄ contains 1 mole of H⁺.

Therefore,

0.07875 mole of HClO₄ will also contain 0.07875 mole of H⁺

How to determine the mole of H⁺ in the mixture

  • Mole of H⁺ in HBr = 0.0989 mole
  • Mole of  H⁺ in HClO₄ = 0.07875 mole
  • Total mole of H⁺ =?

Total mole of H⁺ = 0.0989 + 0.07875

Total mole of H⁺ = 0.1777 mole
