Federal regulations set an upper limit of 50 parts per million
(ppm) of NH3 in the air in a work environment [that is, 50
molecules of NH31g2 for every million molecules in the air].
Air from a manufacturing operation was drawn through a
solution containing 1.00 * 102 mL of 0.0105 M HCl. The
NH3 reacts with HCl according to:
NH31aq2 + HCl1aq2¡NH4Cl1aq2
After drawing air through the acid solution for 10.0 min at a
rate of 10.0 L/min, the acid was titrated. The remaining acid
needed 13.1 mL of 0.0588 M NaOH to reach the equivalence
point. (a) How many grams of NH3 were drawn into the
acid solution?
