A solution of a mineral acid containing 0.10 mol of the acid per dm of solution. B IS a solution Containing 1.325g of anhydrous sodium trioxocarbonate (IV) per dm of solution.

(a) Put A into the burette and titrate with 20cm\(^3\) or 25cm\(^3\) portions of B using methyl orange as an indicator. Record the volume of your pipette

 

(b) From your results and the information is given, calculate;

(i) The number of mole of acid in the average titre

(ii) The number of mole of sodium trioxocarbonate (IV) in the volume of B pipette,

(iii) The mole ratio of acid to base in the reaction [H = 1, C = 12, O = 16, Na 23]

 

(c) Suggest what the acid in (a) Could be giving reasons for your answer. Hence, write the equation for the reaction.
