3. A certain Chemical Industry company has a quality control job opening. The job is open for any major with basic knowledge of chemistry. You decided to apply. In the interview the HR personnel gives you a sealed folder from a certain lot to test your laboratory experience, as well as your quantitative and volumetric analysis skills. The chemical contained in the sample is benzoic acid (C-H602) and it is known to be a monoprotic acid. In order to get the job, you need to determine if the sample's purity is acceptable based on their standards. Inside the folder you found a vial with a solid sample labeled BA-I, a periodic table, and the following data: 1.250 g of the sample required 20.15 mL of 0.500 M concentration of NaOH to reach the end point. The lot can be denied if the purity is below 99.5 % purity.
1) What is the purity in the sample?
2) Is it the purity acceptable?
3) Would you repeat the titration experiment?

Ответ:
1) 97.6%
2) No the purity is not acceptable because the standard is 99.5% purity.
3) Yes I will repeat the titration experiment to confirm my result.
Explanation:
Equation of the reaction;
C7H6O2(aq) + NaOH(aq) > C7H5ONa(aq) + H2O(aq)
From the information provided;
Number of moles of NaOH reacted = concentration × volume = 20.15/1000 × 0.500 = 0.01 moles
From the reaction equation;
1 mole of C7H6O2 reacts with 1 mole of NaOH
Hence 0.01 moles of C7H6O2 will react with 0.01 moles of NaOH
Mass of C7H6O2 reacted = number of moles of C7H6O2 × molar mass of C7H6O2
Molar mass of C7H6O2 = 122.12 g/mol
Mass of C7H6O2 reacted = 0.01 moles × 122.12 g/mol = 1.22 g
Percentage by mass of pure C7H6O2 in the impure sample = 1.22/1.250 × 100 = 97.6 %
