252 g of nitric acid reacted with excess sodium hydroxide. Calculate the mass of the salt

252 g of nitric acid reacted with excess sodium hydroxide. Calculate the mass of the salt obtained if the mass fraction of the salt yield is 90%.

The mass of nitric acid is 252 g.

Mass fraction of the output – 90%.

Determine the mass of the resulting salt.

We write down the reaction equation.

HNO3 + NaOH = NaNO3 + H2O.

Determine the molar mass of nitric acid and sodium nitrate.

M (HNO3) = 1 + 14 + 3 * 16 = 63 g / mol.

M (NaNO3) = 23 + 14 + 16 * 3 = 84 g / mol.

Next, you need to make up the proportion.

252 g of nitric acid – x g of salt.

63 g / mol – 84 g / mol.

X = 336 g.

Let’s define the mass mass.

336 * 0.9 = 302.4 g.

Answer: the mass of sodium nitrate is 302.43 g.
