The Examiner 1 SET 1

1.You are provided with the following:
i) 2.1g of solid sodium carbonate, solid W

ii) Hydrochloric acid, solution Y
iii) 0.2M sodium hydroxide, solution V
You are required to :
-Determine the molar heat of reaction of
sodium carbonate
-Determine the concentration of
hydrochloric acid ,solution Y in moles per litre
This question has two parts:
PART I
Measure 60 cm3 of solution Y, hydrochloric acid and transfer into a plastic beaker and measure its
temperature, T1 =_____________________°C ( 1 mark)
Take all the 2.1g of sodium carbonate and transfer into the solution in the beaker.
Stir with the thermometer and record final temperature reached, T2=__________°C ( 1 mark)
Keep the mixture for part II and label it X.
Calculations
a) Determine the rise in temperature DT _________________________ (1 mark)
b) Determine the amount of heat absorbed by the solution(density of the solution = lg/cm3, specific
heat capacity of the solution = 4.2 J/g/°C) (2 marks)
c) If the acid was in excess, determine the number of moles of sodium carbonate used (Na =23, O = 16,
H= l ) (1 marks)
d) Calculate the number of moles of hydrochloric acid which reacted. (1 marks)
e) Determine the molar heat of reaction of sodium carbonate. (2 marks)

PART II
To the mixture in PART I add 20 cm3 of distilled water and mix well. Transfer the solution into the
burette. Pipette 25 cm3 of NaOH into the conical flask and titrate with solution X using phenolphthalein
indicator. Repeat the experiment and complete the table below.

Volume of X used (cm3)
(4 marks)
i) Determine the average volume of X used (1 mark)
ii) Calculate the number of moles of NaOH in 25cm3. (1 mark)
iii) Determine the number of moles of hydrochloric acid that reacted with moles in 25cm 3 of sodium
hydroxide. (2 marks)
iv) Determine the number of moles of hydrochloric acid in 80 cm3 of X (1 mark)
v) What is the total number of moles of hydrochloric acid in the original 60 cm3 of HC1? (1 mark)
iv) Hence determine the concentration of hydrochloric acid, solution Y in moles per litre. (2 marks)
2. You are provided with solid N. Carry out the tests below, write your observations and inferences in
the spaces provided.
