Its solubility in water is only about 3.44 g dm 3 under normal laborator y temperature. Its sodium salt, NaA (Mr = 144.0), is soluble in water. FA 1 is a fine powder of HA with NaA as an impurity. FA 2 is 0.975 mol dm 3 aqueous sodium hydroxide. The reaction between H A and NaOH(aq) is exothermic. A preliminary experiment was conducted using 2.50 g of FA 1 and 40 cm 3 of FA 2. The sample of FA 1 dissolved completely to give a temperature rise of 6.3 C. The experiment was repeated two more times with different masses of FA 1. FA 1 dissolved completely when 5.00 g were used but only partially when 5.50 g were used. To determine the percentage by mass of H A in FA 1, m g of FA 1 can be reacted with V cm 3 of FA 2 to obtain the temperature rise, T. By repeating the experiments for different sets of m and V values, a suitable graph can be plotted to determine the set of m and V values required for complete neutralisation (the end-point). (a) If a series of five experiments is to be carried out, suggest suitable masses and volumes so that T is at least 10 C for each experiment. Show relevant calculations.
