Given: Solution:
H 2SO 4 Equivalent mass of sulfate
Al(OH) 3
acid: E acid =
Al 2(SO 4) 3
Its molar mass is equal
to determine:
М (H 2SO 4) = 2·1 + 32 + 4·16 = 98 g/molе
Е (H 2SO 4) – ?
Then:
Е (Al(OH) 3) – ?
Е (Al 2(SO 4) 3) – ?
E (H 2SO 4) = 98/2 = 49 g/mol equivalents.
Equivalent mass of aluminum hydroxide:
E bases =
The molar mass of Al(OH) 3 is:
M (Al(OH) 3) = 27 + 3 (16 + 1) = 78 g/mol. Then: E (Al(OH) 3) = 78/3 = 26
g/mol-eq.
To calculate the equivalent mass of aluminum sulfate, use the
formula: E salt =
The molar mass of Al 2(SO 4) 3 is:
M (Al 2(SO 4) 3) = 2 • 27 + 3 (32 + 4 • 16) = 342 g/mol.
Then: E (Al 2(SO 4) 3) = 342/2 • 3 = 57 g/mol-eq.
Answer:
E (H 2SO 4)= 49 g/mol-eq.,
E (Al(OH) 3) = 26 g/mol-eq.
Е (Al 2(SO 4) 3) = 57 g/mol-eq.
