g Solution of barium hydroxide reacts with phosphoric acid to produce barium phosphate precipitate and water. How many mL of 6.50 M calcium hydroxide solution are required to react with a phosphoric acid solution of 45.00 mL that has a concentration of 8.70 M protons (hydrogen ions)

30.12 mL.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the molarity of the phosphoric acid. This can be obtained as follow:

Phosphoric acid H3PO4 will dissociate in water as follow:

H3PO4(aq) <==> 3H^2+(aq) + PO4^3-(aq)

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of H3PO4 produces 3 moles of H+.

Therefore, XM H3PO4 will produce 8.70 M H+ i.e

XM H3PO4 = 8.70/3

XM H3PO4 = 2.9 M.

Therefore, the molarity of the acid solution, H3PO4 is 2.9 M.

Next, we shall write the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2H3PO4 + 3Ba(OH)2 —> Ba3(PO4)2 + 6H2O

From the balanced equation above, we obtained the following:

Mole ratio of the acid, H3PO4 (nA) = 2

Mole ratio of the base, Ba(OH)2 (nB) = 3

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Molarity of base, Ba(OH)2 (Mb) = 6.50 M

Volume of base, Ba(OH)2 (Vb) =.?

Molarity of acid, H3PO4 (Ma) = 2.9 M

Volume of acid, H3PO4 (Va) = 45 mL

The volume of the base, Ba(OH)2 Needed for the reaction can be obtained as follow:

MaVa /MbVb = nA/nB

2.9 x 45 / 6.5 x Vb = 2/3

Cross multiply

2 x 6.5 x Vb = 2.9 x 45 x 3

Divide both side by 2 x 6.5

Vb = (2.9 x 45 x 3) /(2 x 6.5)

Vb = 30.12 mL

Therefore, the volume of the base, Ba(OH)2 needed for the reaction is 30.12 mL
