Calculate the conc. of nitric acid in a sample which has density of 1.41 g/l and mass percentage of nitric acid in it being 69%
Dear student
Given that the mass perentage of Nitric Acid = 69 %
So,Mass of nitric acid solution = 69 g (because 69% means 69 g dissolved in 100 ml of solvent)
And given Density of nitric acid solution = 1.41 g/ml
We knew that
Volume of nitric acid solution =
Given that the mass perentage of Nitric Acid = 69 %
So,Mass of nitric acid solution = 69 g (because 69% means 69 g dissolved in 100 ml of solvent)
And given Density of nitric acid solution = 1.41 g/ml
We knew that
Volume of nitric acid solution =
now,
No of moles of nitric acid
Molarity of the solution =
=
Hence Concentration of nitric acid = 15.37 molL-1
