The correct Answer is:
To find the percentage of nitrogen in the organic compound, we can follow these steps:
### Step 1: Calculate the initial moles of H₂SO₄
Given:
- Volume of H₂SO₄ = 70 mL = 0.070 L
- Molarity of H₂SO₄ = 0.5 M
Using the formula:
\[
\text{Moles of H₂SO₄} = \text{Volume (L)} \times \text{Molarity (mol/L)}
\]
\[
\text{Moles of H₂SO₄} = 0.070 \, \text{L} \times 0.5 \, \text{mol/L} = 0.035 \, \text{mol}
\]
Since H₂SO₄ is a dibasic acid, it can absorb two moles of ammonia (NH₃) for each mole of H₂SO₄. Therefore, the total moles of ammonia that can be absorbed is:
\[
\text{Moles of NH₃ absorbed} = 2 \times 0.035 \, \text{mol} = 0.070 \, \text{mol}
\]
### Step 2: Calculate the moles of NaOH used for neutralization
Given:
- Volume of NaOH = 65 mL = 0.065 L
- Molarity of NaOH = 0.5 M
Using the formula:
\[
\text{Moles of NaOH} = \text{Volume (L)} \times \text{Molarity (mol/L)}
\]
\[
\text{Moles of NaOH} = 0.065 \, \text{L} \times 0.5 \, \text{mol/L} = 0.0325 \, \text{mol}
\]
### Step 3: Calculate the moles of H₂SO₄ that remained after ammonia absorption
The moles of H₂SO₄ that reacted with NaOH is equal to the moles of NaOH used since NaOH is a monoacidic base:
\[
\text{Moles of H₂SO₄ remaining} = 0.0325 \, \text{mol}
\]
### Step 4: Calculate the moles of H₂SO₄ that reacted with ammonia
The moles of H₂SO₄ that reacted with ammonia is:
\[
\text{Moles of H₂SO₄ reacted with NH₃} = \text{Initial moles} - \text{Remaining moles}
\]
\[
\text{Moles of H₂SO₄ reacted with NH₃} = 0.035 \, \text{mol} - 0.0325 \, \text{mol} = 0.0025 \, \text{mol}
\]
### Step 5: Calculate the moles of NH₃ generated
Since each mole of H₂SO₄ reacts with 2 moles of NH₃:
\[
\text{Moles of NH₃ generated} = 2 \times 0.0025 \, \text{mol} = 0.005 \, \text{mol}
\]
### Step 6: Calculate the mass of NH₃ generated
Using the molar mass of NH₃ (17 g/mol):
\[
\text{Mass of NH₃} = \text{Moles} \times \text{Molar mass} = 0.005 \, \text{mol} \times 17 \, \text{g/mol} = 0.085 \, \text{g}
\]
### Step 7: Calculate the percentage of nitrogen in the organic compound
The mass of nitrogen in NH₃ can be calculated as follows (since nitrogen is 14 g in NH₃):
\[
\text{Mass of N} = \text{Mass of NH₃} \times \frac{14}{17} = 0.085 \, \text{g} \times \frac{14}{17} \approx 0.070 \, \text{g}
\]
Now, to find the percentage of nitrogen in the organic compound:
\[
\text{Percentage of N} = \left( \frac{\text{Mass of N}}{\text{Mass of organic compound}} \right) \times 100 = \left( \frac{0.070 \, \text{g}}{1.0 \, \text{g}} \right) \times 100 = 7.0\%
\]
### Final Answer:
The percentage of nitrogen in the organic compound is approximately **7.0%**.
