Calculate the mass of the potassium salt of aminoacetic acid, which is formed by the interaction of 5.85 g
Calculate the mass of the potassium salt of aminoacetic acid, which is formed by the interaction of 5.85 g of potassium hydroxide with 10 g of aminoacetic acid.
Let’s find the amount of aminoacetic acid substance by the formula:
n = m: M.
M (CH2 (NH2) COOH) = 75 g / mol.
n = 10 g: 75 g / mol = 0.133 mol.
Let’s find the amount of the substance KOH.
n = m: M.
M (KOH) = 46 g / mol.
n = 5.85 g: 46 g / mol 0.1 mol.
KOH is given in disadvantage.
Let’s compose the reaction equation, find the quantitative ratios of substances.
CH2 (NH2) COOH + KOH = CH2 (NH2) COOK + H2O.
According to the reaction equation, there is 1 mol of salt for 1 mol of KOH. The substances are in quantitative ratios of 1: 1.
The amount of substance will be equal.
n (KOH) = n (CH2 (NH2) COOK) = 0.1 mol.
Find the mass of CH2 (NH2) COOK.
M (CH2 (NH2) COOK) = 113 g / mol.
m = n × M.
m = 113 g / mol 0.1 mol = 11.3 g.
Answer: 11.3 g.
