Answer:

Molarity = 0.08 M

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of NaOH = 24.11 cm³ (24.11/1000 = 0.0241 L)

Mass of C₈H₅KO₄ = 0.43 g

Molarity of NaOH = ?

Solution:

First of all we will write the chemical equation:

C₈H₅KO₄ + NaOH  →  H₂O + KNaC₈H₄O₄

Number of moles of C₈H₅KO₄:

Number of moles  = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 0.43 g / 204.22 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.002 mol

Now we will compare the moles of C₈H₅KO₄ with NaOH.

                         C₈H₅KO₄          ;            NaOH

                               1                  :              1

                         0.002               :        0.002

Molarity of NaOH:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in litter

Molarity = 0.002 mol /0.0241 L

Molarity = 0.08 M
