Question

Concentrated nitric acid used in laboratory work is 68% nitric acid by mass in aqueous solution. What should be the molarity of such a sample of the acid if the density of the solution is 1.504 g mL−1?

Numerical

Solution

Concentrated nitric acid used in laboratory work is 68% nitric acid by mass in an aqueous solution. This means that 68 g of nitric acid are dissolved in 100 g of the solution.

Molar mass of nitric acid (HNO3) = 1 × 1 + 1 × 14 + 3 × 16 = 63 g mol−1

Then, the number of moles of HNO3 = `68/63` mol

= 1.079 mol

Given,

Density of solution = 1.504 g mL−1

∴ Volume of solution = `(100  "g")/(1.504  "g mL"^(-1))`

= 66.5 mL

= 0.0665 L

Molarity of Solution = `"Number of moles of the solute"/"Volume of solution in L"`

= `1.079/0.0665`

= 16.23 M
