Adipic acid is di - protic:
sf(H_2X+2NaOHrarrNa_2X+2H_2O)
sf(M_r=146.14)
The no. moles of sf(H_2X) is given by:
sf(n_(H_2X)=m/M_r=0.283/146.14=0.0019365)
From the equation we can say that the no. moles of sf(NaOH) must be twice that:
sf(n_(NaOH)=2xx0.0019365=0.003873)
sf(c=n/v)
:.sf(v=n/c=0.003873/0.1000=0.03373color(white)(x)L)
sf(v=38.73color(white)(x)ml)
(b)
Now the acid is 74% pure:
sf(m_(H_2X)=0.304xx0.74=0.22496color(white)(x)g)
sf(n_(H_2X)=m/M_r=0.22496/146.14=0.00153934)
:.sf(n_(NaOH)=0.00153934xx2=0.00307869)
sf(v=n/c=0.0030786/0.1000=0.0307869color(white)(x)L)
