In an experiment similar to this one, the solubility ofpotassium hydrogen oxalate (KHC2O4, molar mass= 128.13 g mol) isdetermined. A 5.0 10^-2 M aqueous solution of KCI is saturated withpotassium hydrogen oxalate. The following equilibrium results:KHC2O4(s)-----K^+ + HC2O4^-
Following saturation, the solution is filtered. Portions of thefiltered saturated solution are titrated with 0.1172M NaOHsolution.
The following date are obtained:
Volume of saturated KHC2O4 Solution Titrated, mL Determination#1 25.2 Determination #2 29.1
Volume of NaOH solution used, mL---------------------Determination #1 36.88 Determination #241.81
Temperature of saturated solution, C--------------------Determination #1 20.1 Determination #2 20.1
