Hi guys can i get help with this question:
In some laboratory analyses the preferred technique is to dissolve an impure solid sample of acid or base in solution containing an excess of acid or base, and then 'back-titrate' the excess with a standard base or acid of known concentration.
This technique is used to assess the purity of a sample of KHSO4.
A 0.4696-g solid sample of impure KHSO4 was dissolved in 50 mL of 0.1 M KOH. This solution contains more base than is needed to neutralise the acid, HSO4-. After neutralisation of the HSO4-, the excess base is neutralised by 10.44 mL of 0.2127 M HCl.
Calculate the percentage by mass of pure KHSO4 in the sample.
express concerntrations of KHSO4 as %w/w
If you could working out would be appreciated, thx
