Q.

A mixture of NaOH  and Na2CO3 required 25mL of 0.1 M HCl using phenolphthalein as the indicator. However, the same amount of the mixture requied 30 mL HCl using methyl orange was used as the indicator. The molar ratio of NaOH and  Na2CO3 in the mixture is x:y. Then the x+y is (x and y are integers)

Detailed Solution

With Phenolphthalein indicator

 m. eq of NaOH+12m. eq of Na2CO3=m. eq of HCl

x+y2=25×0.1×1x+0.5y=2.51

 With methyl orange indicator m.eq of NaOH+m.eq of Na2CO3=m.eq of HCl

x+y=30×0.1×1x+y=32

Solving 1 and 2 y=1  and x=2

but equivalents = moles ×nf 

  for Na2CO3             1=mole×2             

                                          mole =0.5

 for NaOH: 2= moles ×1            moles=2                     

 ration of moles of: NaOH:Na2CO3

                             2 : 0.5

                           4 :1

                   x+y=4+1=5
