if 0.01 mole of Na2CO3 is required , amount of Na2CO3 .10H2O to be taken is???
Dear Student,
The equation for dissociation of the sodium bicarbonate decahydrate is:
, where x,y and z are the weights of the compounds.
Mole ratio of Na2CO3:H2O = 1:10
Now, number of moles of Na2CO3 = 0.01
Therefore, number of moles of H2O = 0.01 x 10 =0.1
Now,
y = weight of Na2CO3 = Number of moles x Molar Mass = 0.01 x 106 = 1.06 g
z = weight of H2O = 0.1 x 18 = 1.8 g
Therefore, x = y + z = 1.06 + 1.8 = 1.86 g
Thus, 1.86 g of Na2CO3.10H2O are required.
