A student attempted to determine d % by mass of nitrogen in Nitrochalk by d following titrimetric procedure.
2g of nitrochalk was heated with 25cm3 of 2.00M NaOH until no more NH3 was evolved.The mix. was filtered to remove d CaCO3.The filtrate was then made up to 250cm3 by adding distilled water and 25cm3 portion were titrated against 0.1M HCL.It was found that 30cm3 of acid was required to neutralize d NaOH left over.
1)From the given data,calc. d number of moles of ammonium nitrate present in the original sample of fertilizer
2)Calc. the % by mass of nitrogen in the fertilizer and
3)The % by mass of CaCO3 in d nitrochalk
Nitrochalk is a widely used fertilizer that conts NH4NO3 and CaCO3
