Reagents and their preparations including their shelf life:


01. Dilute (6M) Hydrochloric Acid (25mL) solution. Purity 37% and Density 1.19g/mL:


Method of Preparation:  
Take 12.435 mL hydrochloric acid in 100 mL volumetric flask.Now completely dissolve it with a small volume of D.W. Finally adjust the volume up to mark by adding distilled water Q.S.


Calculation: We know, W=SMV÷1000  
Here, strength of HCl, S=6M, Volume,V=25 mL,
Molecular weight of HCl, M= 1+35.5=36.5 gm/mol,
Required amount W=?


Now, W={(636.525)÷1000} gm =5.475 gm


Since, ρ=M÷V; Here, ρ=1.9 gm/mL and M=5.475gm, Thus, V=(5.475÷1.19) mL =4.6008 mL.


On the other hand, purity of HCl=37%,

That means, 37 mL is present in=100 mL
4.6008 mL is present in= {(1004.6008)÷37} mL =12.435 mL of HCl


Shelf Life: 03(Three) months from the date of preparation.


Question: Calculate the volume of concentrated HCl, having a density of 1181 g/L and containing 36.5 % HCl by weight, needed to prepare 500 mL of a 0.1 mol/L hydrochloric acid solution?

=======================
To prepare 500 mL of a 0.1 mol/L solution of hydrochloric acid we will need to dilute 4.22917 mL of 36.5 % HCl to a final volume of 500 mL with deionized (distilled) water.

SOURCE:
-------------
   Name: Hydrochloric acid  
   Formula: HCl
   Formula weight: 36.461 g/mol
   CAS Number: 7647-01-0
   NFPA: Health 3, Flammability 0, Instability 1, Special

CALCULATION:
-------------
The key concept is that the amount of solute in the desired solution must be equal to the amount of solute in the source solution. Remember, the concentration is the amount of a solute divided by the volume of the solution.

Before we make any calculations we have to make sure that we only use one system and one unit of measurement. DO NOT mix measurement systems and units.

   Desired solution:
   V0 = (500 mL×1÷1000)L = 0.5 L
   c0 = 0.1 mol/L
   Source solutions:
   w1 = 36.5 % = (36.5× 1)÷100 = 0.365
   d1 = 1181 g/L
   --------------------------------
Then, we determine the concentration of the source (stock) solution

   c1 = d(HCl)× w(HCl) / M(HCl)
   c1 =( 1181 g/L× 0.365 )÷36.4609 g/mol
   c1 = 11.8227 mol/L
Since the total amount of solute is the same before and after dilution, the volume of stock solution needed is

   V1 = (V0 × c0 )÷ c1
   V1 = (0.5 L × 0.1 mol/L )÷ 11.8227 mol/L
   V1 = 0.00422917 L

To convert the result into a desired unit we will use dimensional analysis again

   V(36.5 % HCl) = 0.00422917 L= (0.00422917×1000) mL = 4.22917 mL


Method:02- Calculation:


We know, W=SMV÷1000  
Here, strength of HCl, S=0.1M,
Volume, V=500 mL,
Molecular weight of HCl, M= 36.4609 g/mol
Required amount W=?


Now, W={(0.136.4609500)÷1000} gm =1.823045 gm


As the purity of the solution is 36.5% (w/w) thus , 36.5 gram is present in 100 gm


Since, the density is 1181 g/L=1.181 g/mL


Thus , 1.181gm=1 mL   So, 100 gm= {(100×1)÷1.181} mL= 84.67400508 mL


That means, 36.5 gm is present in=84.67400508 mL
1.823045 gm is present in= {(1004.6008)÷37} mL =4.229165011 mL of HCl

Method-03: Calculation:


We know, W=SMV÷1000  
Here, strength of HCl, S=0.1M,
Volume, V=500 mL,
Molecular weight of HCl, M= 36.4609 g/mol
Required amount W=?


Now, W={(0.136.4609500)÷1000} gm =1.823045 gm


As the purity of the solution is 36.5% (w/w) thus , 36.5 gram is present in 100 gm


Since, the density is 1181 g/L=1.181 g/mL


Thus, 1.181gm=1 mL   So, 100 gm= {(100×1)÷1.181} mL= 84.67400508 mL


We know that, molarity is the moles of solute per litre of solution.


Here the moles of HCl is (36.5÷36.5) = 1 mole


And the volume is (84.67400508÷1000)L=0.084674005 L


Thus the molarity =(1÷0.084674005)=11.8099999M

Now
We know that,
 M1V1 = M2V2
= 4.23370029 mL
Here, Volume of  diluted HCl Solution (Final volume), V2 = 500 mL
      Strength of diluted solution (Final Strength), M2 =  0.1 M
