14. A student was asked to find the relative molecular mass of a solid acid. She weighed out accurately a
sample of the acid and then made 250 cm3 of solution in a graduated flask. She took 25.0 cm3 portions of
the solution and titrated them against aqueous sodium hydroxide of concentration 0.20 mol dm-3 which
was contained in a burette. Phenolphthalein was used as the indicator.

(i) Complete Tables 1 and 2 to show the mass of acid used and the volume of sodium hydroxide in each
titration.
(ii) Decide which titration figures should be used to calculate the most accurate mean value for the
volume sodium hydroxide added and then perform the calculation.

were present in the mean volume?
(ii) Use the mole ratio from the equation to determine how many moles of acids reacted with this
number of sodium hydroxide. The value obtained is equal to the number of moles of acid in 25.0 cm3 of
solution.
(iii) How many moles of acids were present in 250 cm3 of solution?
