We'l write the chemical reaction
first:
KOH + HNO3 -> KNO3 +
H2O
To calculate the concentration of the excess ions we'll
apply the following formula:
Concentration of excess of
ions = excess moles/total volume of solution
We'll
determine the total volume of solution:
Total volume = 28
mL + 53mL = 81mL = 0.081L
We'll determine the initial moles
of H+;
Initial moles of H+ = volume * concentration of HNO3
= 0.028*0.250
Initial moles of H+ = 0.007
mol
Initial moles of OH- = volume * concentration of KOH =
0.053*0.320
Initial moles of OH- = 0.01696
mol
We'll calculate the excess moles of OH = (Initial moles
of OH-) - (Initial moles of H+)
excess moles of OH =
0.01696 - 0.007 = 0.00996 mol
Concentration of excess of
OH- = excess moles OH-/total volume of
solution
Concentration of excess of OH- = 0.00996
mol/0.081L = 0.123
The concentration of the
excess of OH- ions is of 0.123.
