Detailed Solution

At first end point, gram equivalent of NaOH and Na2CO3 is equal to the gram equivalent of HCl.

Assume that moles of NaOH is x and moles of Na2CO3 is y.

gram equivalent (NaOH and Na2CO3)=HCl x+y×1=110×1.75 x+y=1.75....(1)

At second,end point gram equivalents of NaOH+Na2CO3=gram equivalent of HClx+y×2=110×19x+y=1.9...(2)

On solving equations (1) and (2).

y=0.15

Weight %Na2CO3=weight of the compoundgram weight of mixture×100%Na2CO3=0.15×10-3×1060.4×100                 =3.975%                   4%
