7. A volumetric analysis was completed on a water sample to determine the amount of carbonate in the sample.
(a) Initially, a 0.2123 g Na2CO3 sample required 15.76 mL of HCl to reach the end point of the titration. What is the molarity of the acid? What is this step referred to as?
(b) A 23.05 mL volume of this titrant is needed to react completely with a 50.00 mL sample containing carbonate. What is the concentration reported as mg/L calcium carbonate?
