How to Do Solution Stoichiometry Using Molarity as a Conversion Factor | How to Pass Chemistry

PRACTICE PROBLEM:
A 34.53 mL sample of H2SO4 reacts with 27.86 mL of 0.08964 M NaOH solution. Calculate the molarity of the H2SO4 solution.
H2SO4 + 2NaOH = Na2SO4 + 2H2O

💁‍♀️ HI I'M MELISSA MARIBEL
I help students pass Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. I used to struggle with this subject, so when I finally graduated with a bachelor's degree in Chemistry, I became a tutor so that you wouldn't have to struggle like I did. I know that with the right help, YOU CAN LEARN ANYTHING!

STEP BY STEP ANSWER:
Given:
34.53 mL H2SO4
27.86 mL NaOH
0.08964 M NaOH
Find:
M H2SO4
Remember 0.08964 M NaOH means 0.08964 mol NaOH/ 1 L
Step 1: Find mol of H2SO4
Plan: mL NaOH to L NaOH to mol NaOH to mol H2SO4
Metric system molarity NaOH mol to mol ratio
Setup:
27.86 mL NaOH x ( 10^-3 L NaOH/ 1 mL NaOH) x (0.08964 mol NaOH/ 1 L NaOH) x ( 1 mol H2SO4/2 mol NaOH)
= 0.001249 mol H2SO4
Step 2: Convert mL to L of H2SO4
34.53 mL H2SO4 x ( 10^-3 L H2SO4/ 1 mL H2SO4)
= 0.03453 L H2SO4
Step 3: Divide mol/L
M= 0.001249 mol H2SO4/0.03453 L H2SO4
Answer= 0.03617 M H2SO4

you're literally a better teacher than my college chem professor. he spent a full week explaining concentration and your 8 minute video made it make more sense than he ever did

No college professor spends a whole week explaining concentration. That is nonsense. If you can't get that concentration is mols per L, like speed is miles per hour, you need a brain check.

[@nancylievano5940]

It makes total sense with only 7 minutes of watching, something that professors make so boring. Hopefully someday I'll be able to be in your shoes teach it or know chemistry like the palm of my hand! Thank you for all your hard work. Really appreciated!!

I'm just confused as to where you are getting 10^-3 L NaOH ??? Can you explain that part?

[@harrybalz2912]

All units have to be the same. If the have ml and L in the problem the units are not the same. It’s like converting feet to meters or something similar Km to m.

[@jansenshomo7747]

Does anyone know a channel that's this clear for physics?

So for your second sample problem you divided by 2 to solve for HO2SO4 because of the balance of the equation. Ooohh, even without your voice i learn. Great chemistry! 💙

I actually followed the math with my calculator and paper your numbers are wrong but your answer is right. Please revise that step 1 answer should be 0.0375 moles of NaOH. Step 2 should be 2.85 L NaOH. Dividing them would give you a sig fig answer of 0.0132.
