Explanation / Answer

Trial 1

From the ideal gas equation

Moles of CO2 = pressure x volume / R x Temperature

= [(614.1/760) atm x 22.41 L] / [0.0821 L-atm/mol-K x (23+273)K]

= 0.7451 mol

From the stoichiometry of the reaction

Moles of NaHCO3 = moles of CO2 consumed

= 0.7451 mol

Mass of NaHCO3 = moles x molecular weight

= 0.7451 mol x 84.01 g/mol

= 62.598 g

Mass % NaHCO3 in sample

= mass of NaHCO3 x 100 / mass of sample

= 62.598 x 100 / 115

= 54.43 %

Trial 2

From the ideal gas equation

Moles of CO2 = pressure x volume / R x Temperature

= [(614.1/760) atm x 21.74 L] / [0.0821 L-atm/mol-K x (23+273)K]

= 0.7229 mol

From the stoichiometry of the reaction

Moles of NaHCO3 = moles of CO2 consumed

= 0.7229 mol

Mass of NaHCO3 = moles x molecular weight

= 0.7229 mol x 84.01 g/mol

= 60.727 g

Mass % NaHCO3 in sample

= mass of NaHCO3 x 100 / mass of sample

= 60.727 x 100 / 119

= 51.03 %

Trial 3

From the ideal gas equation

Moles of CO2 = pressure x volume / R x Temperature

= [(614.1/760) atm x 22.08 L] / [0.0821 L-atm/mol-K x (23+273)K]

= 0.7342 mol

From the stoichiometry of the reaction

Moles of NaHCO3 = moles of CO2 consumed

= 0.7342 mol

Mass of NaHCO3 = moles x molecular weight

= 0.7342 mol x 84.01 g/mol

= 61.677 g

Mass % NaHCO3 in sample

= mass of NaHCO3 x 100 / mass of sample

= 61.677 x 100 / 117

= 52.72 %

Average mass % NaHCO3 = (54.43 + 51.03 + 52.72)/3

= 52.727 %
