Question

The analyst wanted to measure the zinc oxide

content of a 1.25-g sample. The sample was

treated with 50 mL of 0.5615 M sulfuric acid. Then,

the resulting mixture was also treated with 0.9765

M sodium hydroxide. The resulting purity was 95.0%

ZnO.

titrant?

  1. Sulfuric acid
  2. Sodium hydroxide
  3. Both A and B
  4. Zinc oxide

Which of the following substances is the

analyte?

  1. Zinc oxide
  2. Sodium hydroxide

  2. 0.5938 g
  3. 1.1875 g
  4. 2.375 g

The given case does not have a sharp

end point to perform a direct titration.

  1. True
  2. False

. The applicable chemical indicator for

this case is methyl orange.

  1. True
  2. False
