The antacid component of Tumsr is calcium carbonate. Assume Tumsr is 40.0 percent CaCO3 by mass. If we have 400. mg of Tumsr how many ml of 0.100 M HCl can we neutralize? Express your answer in mL.

Answer:

31.9724 mL

Explanation:

The given antacid, Tumsr contains 40% of [tex]CaCO_3[/tex] by mass.

Given mass of Tusmr = 400 mg

Mass of [tex]CaCO_3[/tex] = [tex]\frac {40}{100}\times 400\ mg=160\ mg[/tex]

Also, 1 mg = 0.001 g

Mass of [tex]CaCO_3[/tex] in Tusmr = 0.16 g

Molar mass of [tex]CaCO_3[/tex] = 100.0869 g/mol

Moles = Mass / Molar mass = 0.16 g / 100.0869 g/mol = 15.9862 × 10⁻⁴ moles

Considering the reaction:

[tex]CaCO_3+2HCl\rightarrow CaCl_2+CO_2+H_2O[/tex]

1 mole of [tex]CaCO_3[/tex] react with 2 moles of HCl

15.9862 × 10⁻⁴ moles of [tex]CaCO_3[/tex] react with 2*15.9862 × 10⁻⁴ moles of HCl

Moles of HCl = 31.9724 × 10⁻⁴ moles

Considering:

[tex]Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}[/tex]

Or,

[tex]Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}[/tex]

Given :

For HCl :

Molarity = 0.100 M

Let, Volume = x mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = x ×10⁻³ L

Moles of HCl =  31.9724 × 10⁻⁴

[tex]31.9724\times 10^{-4}=0.100 \times {x\times 10^{-3}}\ moles[/tex]

Volume = x = 31.9724 mL

Oseni

The volume, in mL, of 0.100 M HCl that can be neutralized by 400 mg Tumsr will be 32 mL

Stoichiometric calculation

Tumsr contains 40.0 percent CaCO3. Thus, a 400 mg of Tumsr will contain

     400 x 40/100 = 160 mg CaCO3

From the equation of the reaction:

CaCO3 + 2HCl ------------> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2

Mole ratio of CaCO3 and HCl = 1:2

Mole of 160 mg CaCO3 = 0.16g/100 = 0.0016 moles

Equivalent mole of HCl = 0.0016 x 2 = 0.0032 moles

Volume of 0.0032 mole, 0.100 M HCl = 0.0032/0.1

                                                            = 0.032 L or 32 mL
