Concentrated hydrochloric acid is 38% HCl by weight and has a density of 1.19 g/mL. A solution

Question:

Concentrated hydrochloric acid is 38% HCl by weight and has a density of 1.19 g/mL. A solution is prepared by measuring 83 mL of the concentrated HCl, adding it to water, and diluting to 1.00 L.

(a) Calculate the approximate molarity of this solution from the volume, percentage composition, and density.

(b) The exact concentration is determined by titration. A 25.00-mL portion of the solution is titrated with 1.04 M NaOH. Phenolphthalein changes color after adding 23.88 mL of the base. What is the concentration of the HCl solution? How does the approximate concentration calculated in part a compare with the exact concentration?
