You are given a 1.00 g sample of an unknown tri-protic acid, which you dissolve in 50.0 ml of water containing phenolphthalein indicator. you titrate the acid solution with standardized 0.400 m koh(aq). it requires 39.06 ml of the koh solution to produce a light pink indicator color. what is the molecular weight of the unknown acid?

21.33 g/mol

Explanation:

Considering:-

So, Given that:-

Let Molarity of tri-protic acid = x M

n-factor of tri-protic acid = 3 (3 dissociable H)

So,  

Normality of tri-protic acid = x/3 N

So, Given that:-

Let Molarity of KOH = 0.400 M

n-factor of KOH = 1 (1 dissociable OH)

So,  

Normality of KOH = 0.400 N

Considering:-

At equivalence point

Gram equivalents of acid = Gram equivalents of base

So,

Given  that:  

So,    

x = 0.93744 M

Also,

Considering:

Or,

Given :

For tri-protic acid :

Molarity = 0.93744 M

Volume = 50.0 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 50.0×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of tri-protic acid :

Moles of tri-protic acid  = 0.046872 moles

Also, Given mass = 1.00 g

So,

Molar mass = Mass/Moles = 1.00g / 0.046872 moles = 21.33 g/mol

21.33 g/mol is the molecular weight of the unknown acid.

it's filtration, but this is an assumption so my apologies if i got this

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
