It is commonly found in many leafy vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds. It is able to react with a base such as sodium hydroxide, NaOH. (a) FA 1 is a solution containing 5.00 g dm–3 of a similar dibasic, organic acid, HO2C(CH2)nCO2H. When 25.0 cm 3 of FA 1 is titrated against NaOH of co ncentration 0.125 mol dm–3, 17.00 cm3 of NaOH is required. The equation for this reaction is given as follows. HO2C(CH2)nCO2H(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) → Na2(O2C(CH2)nCO2) (aq) + 2H2O(l) (i) Calculate the amount in moles of NaOH required to react with 25.0 cm 3 of the acid solution in FA 1. [1] (ii) Calculate the amount in moles of the dibasic acid, HO2C(CH2)nCO2H in 25.0 cm3 of FA 1 that has reacted. [1] (iii) Calculate the concentration of the acid, HO2C(CH2)nCO2H in mol dm-3 of solution in FA 1. [1] (iv) Hence, determine the value of n in the formula of the acid, HO2C(CH2)nCO2H.
