A sample of oxalic acid (a diprotic acid of the formula H2C2O4) is dissolved in enough water to make 1.00 L of solution. A 100.0 mL sample of this solution is titrated with a solution of sodium hydroxide of concentration 0.750 M and requires 20.0 mL of sodium hydroxide to reach the end point. Calculate the mass of the original oxalic acid sample.
Original solution of volume 1.00 L is made by using the sample of the oxalic acid.
Now, 100.0 mL of the oxalic acid solution is titrated with a strong base NaOH.
The reaction of oxalic acid with NaOH can be written as
Hence, 2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mol of oxalic acid.
Now, the concentration of NaOH used = 0.750 M = 0.750 mol/L
Volume of NaOH used to reach the end point = 20.0 mL = 0.0200 L
Hence, number of moles of NaOH used can be calculated as
Now, the number of moles of oxalic acid that must have reacted with 0.0150 mol of NaOH is
Hence, 0.0075 mol of oxalic acid must be present in 100.0 mL of solution titrated.
Hence, the number of moles of oxalic acid in the original acid sample is
Hence, the original sample of oxalic acid has 0.075 mol of oxalic acid.
Molar mass of oxalic acid = 90.03 g/mol
Hence, the mass of oxalic acid can be calculated as
Hence, the mass of original oxalic acid sample used to prepare the solution is 6.75 g approximately.

a) Write the reaction for the neutralization oxalic acid (H2C2O4) with sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Note oxalic acid is diprotic (like sulfuric acid). b) A 0.1187 g sample of an unknown, diprotic solid acid is dissolved in water. 26.36 mL of 0.1000 M sodium hydroxide is used to reach the equivalence point. How many moles of sodium hydroxide were reacted? How many moles of acid reacted? What is the molecular weight of the acid?
A solution is prepared by dissolving 0.5892 g oxalic acid (H2C2O4) in enough water to make 100.0 mL of solution. A 10.00-mL aliquot (portion) of this solution is then diluted to a final volume of 250.0 mL. What is the final molarity of the diluted oxalic acid solution? I do not know if the answer of 0.00187 or 1.87 x 10^ -3 is correct. It is incorrect in my perspective, so i do not expect that answer, if you think...
A mixture of acetic acid (CH3 CO2H monoprotic) and oxalic acid (H2C2O4; diprotic) requires 27.15 mL of 0.100 M NaOH to neutralize it. When an identical amount of the mixture is titrated, 15.05 mL of 2.68x10-2 M KMnO, is needed for complete reaction.
A chemistry student needs to standardize a fresh solution of sodium hydroxide. She carefully weighs out 201.mg of oxalic acid H2C2O4 , a diprotic acid that can be purchased inexpensively in high purity, and dissolves it in 250.mL of distilled water. The student then titrates the oxalic acid solution with her sodium hydroxide solution. When the titration reaches the equivalence point, the student finds she has used 63.0mL of sodium hydroxide solution. Calculate the molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide...
