For 1molar solution of NaCl in water at 25∘C and 1atm pressure show that:
A. Molarity = mole fraction
B. Molality = mole fraction
C. Normality = mole fraction
D. Molarity = normality
Solution
Molar mass is the mass of one mole of a substance. Equivalent weight of a substance (oxidizing and reducing agents) is equal to the molar mass divided by the number of gain or loss by one molecule of the substance in the redox reaction.
Formula used: Equivalent weight of an oxidizing agent =numberofelectronsgainbymetalMolarmass.
Complete answer:
Given: 1 MolarNaClmeans 1 moles of solute dissolved per litre of the solution
i.e. molarity of NaCl is1.
In the given NaCl,charge on sodium and chloride ion is1(∵NaCl→Na++Cl−). Where n-factor is the total charge on positive ion or total charge on negative ion.
Thus, n-factor ofNaClis1.
We know that normality is defined as the number of gram equivalent of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.
Therefore Normality = volume of solution(ml)number of gram equivalent of solute×1000……. (i)
Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per litre of the solution.
Therefore Molarity = volume of solution(ml)number of moles of solute×1000………. (ii)
From equation (i) and (ii)
Divide (ii) from (i), we get
⇒MolarityNormality=numberofmolesofsolutenumber of gram equivalent of solute
⇒MolarityNormality=molarmassWeight of soluteEquivalentweightweight of solute
(Where, number of gram equivalent of solute =Equivalent weightweight and
Number of moles of solute=Molar massweight)
⇒MolarityNormality=n−factorMolar massMolarmass (∵ Equivalent weight= n−factorMolar mass)
MolarityNormality= n - factor
∴ Normality = Molarity × n-factor
Now, putting the value of molarity of NaCl and n-factor of NaCl.
⇒ Normality = 1×1
∴ Normality =1
Hence, the normality is equal to molarity.
Thus the correct answer is option (D).
Note: For 1 molar solution of NaCl in water at 25∘C and 1atm pressure show that normality becomes equal to molarity. For an acid, n -factor is defined as the number of H+ions replaced by1mole of acid in a reaction. But the n-factor for acid is not equal to its basicity. For example n-factor of sulphuric acid is 2. For a base, n-factor is the number of hydroxyl ions replaced by 1 mole of a base in a reaction. But n-factor for base is not equal to its acidity. For example n-factor of sodium hydroxide is 1.
