Titration of a 20.0-ml sample of acid rain required 1.7 ml of 0.0811 m naoh to reach the end point. if we assume that the acidity of the rain is due to the presence of sulfuric acid, what was the concentration of sulfuric acid in this sample of rain?

Concentration of sulfuric acid in the acid rain sample is 0.0034467 mol/L.

Explanation:

Volume of NaOH = 1.7 ml = 0.0017 L

Molarity of NaOH = 0.0811 M

Moles of NaOH = n

n = 0.0001378 mol

According to reaction, 2 mol of NaOH neutralize 1 mol of sulfuric acid.

Then 0.0001378 mol of NaOH will neutralize:

of sulfuric acid.

Concentration of sulfuric acid in the acid rain sample: x

Concentration of sulfuric acid in the acid rain sample is 0.0034467 mol/L.

both adhesion and cohesion are attractions.

they are different in that adhesion is the force of attraction between the molecules of two different substances, whereas cohesion is the force of attraction between molecules of the same substance.

possible examples include capillary action, in which the adhesion between water and glass causes the water to rise in a narrow tube against the force of gravity.

because of hydrogen bonding, water is extremely cohesive.

this causes molecules on the surface of water to be drawn inward, which is why drops of water form beads on smooth surfaces.

hope this .
