Rough- 24.10,0.00,24.10
First- 23.80, 0.00, 23.80
Second- 23.75, 0.00, 23.70
Third- 23.75, 0.00, 23.75
Average volume of A used = 23.80 + 23.70 + 23.75cm^3/3
=23.75cm^3
CAVA/CcVc=2/1
Cc=CAVA/2VC
=0.100*23.75Moldm^-3/2*25.00
=0.0475moldm^-3
amount of A used = 0.100x VA/1000=0.100*23.75/1000 =0.00237
2moles Of A = 1mole of C
0.002375mol of A = 0.002375mol/2
100cm^3 of C contain 0.00237*100mol/2*25 =0

=286gmol-1
Molar mass of Na2CO3 =[(2×23)+12+(16×3)]=106gmol-1
Mass of anhydrous Na2CO3=106×0.0475gdm-3
=5.035gdm-3
Mass of water=13.6-5.035gdm-3

laboratory purposes .
3ii)
i)Amphoteric is Al2O3
ii) Neutral oxide is H2O
3iii) Crystallization
3b.
1. hno3aq to cuco3 solid. a light blue solid,
precipitates is formed
2. acidified kmno4 to c2h4. c2h4 is oxidized to
ethane-1,2-
diol
3. iodine solution to a paste of unripe plantain. a
bluish-black color is produced with iodine
