Calculate how many milliliters of 0.142 M NaOH are needed to completely neutralize 21.4 mL of 0.294 M H2C4H4O6.

The answer to your question is 88.7 ml

Explanation:

Data

Volume = ?

Concentration of NaOH = 0.142 M

Volume of H₂C₄H₄O₆ = 21.4 ml

Concentration of H₂C₄H₄O₆ = 0.294 M

Balanced chemical reaction

               2 NaOH + H₂C₄H₄O₆  ⇒  Na₂C₄H₄O₆  +  2H₂O

1.- Calculate the moles of H₂C₄H₄O₆

Molarity = moles/volume

Solve for moles

moles = Molarity x volume

Substitution

moles = 0.294 x 21.4/1000

Result

moles = 0.0063

2.- Use proportions to calculate the moles of NaOH

              2 moles of NaOH 1 moles of H₂C₄H₄O₆

               x                           0.0063 moles

               x = (0.0063 x 2) / 1

               x = 0.0126 moles of NaOH

3.- Calculate the volume  of NaOH

Molarity = moles / volume

Solve for volume

Volume = moles/Molarity

Substitution

Volume = 0.0126/0.142

Result

Volume = 0.088 L or 88.7 ml

3 hours because it is a decent distance.

periodic trends is an atom that gets larger as the number of electronic shells increase, the radius of atoms increases as you go down a certain group in the periodic table of elements. in general, the size of an atom will decrease as you move from left to right of a certain period.
