AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on a titration problem involving EDTA and zinc in an alloy solution. The user has successfully calculated the moles of EDTA used in the titration, finding it to be 0.000113 moles from 11.30 mL of 0.0100 M EDTA. The next steps involve determining the moles of zinc in the 10 mL aliquot and then extrapolating that to find the total moles of zinc in the entire 250 mL sample. A suggestion is made to refer to a specific resource for further assistance with titration calculations. The user is seeking help to complete their calculations accurately.

Homework Statement


Hello, please help me with this problem.

I've titrated EDTA 0.0100 M into a 10.0 mL aliquot of an alloy solution. My entire alloy same is 250.0 mL.

The EDTA reacted with zinc in a 1:1 ratio, and my best volume is 11.30 mL.

I need to find the moles of EDTA, which I believe I've found.
The moles of zinc in my 10 mL aliquot.
And the total moles of zinc in my 250.0 mL sample.

Homework Equations


The Attempt at a Solution



So far I've found my moles of EDTA in my 11.30 mL.

11.30 ml (1L/1000 mL) = 0.0113 L/EDTA

0.0113 L/EDTA (0.0100 mole/L) = 0.000113 moles of EDTA

After that I'm stuck. Please help me out.

TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...
