Assume the solubility of benzoic acid in ice-cold water is 1.70 g/L and the solubility of benzoic acid in hot water is 68.0 g/L. Calculate the minimum volume of water (in mL) needed to recrystallize 0.700 g of benzoic acid.

The volume of water needed to recrystallize 0.700 g of benzoic acid is 10.29 mL.

Explanation:

For the complete recrystalization,

the amount of hot water should be such that, the benzoic acid is completely soluble in it.

As we are given that the solubility of benzoic acid in hot water is 68.0 g/L. Now we have to determine the volume of water is needed to recrystallize 0.700 g of benzoic acid.

we conclude that,

As, 68.0 grams of benzoic acid soluble in 1 L of water.

So, 0.700 grams of benzoic acid soluble in  of water.

The volume of water needed = 0.01029 L = 10.29 mL

conversion used : (1 L = 1000 mL)

Therefore, the volume of water needed to recrystallize 0.700 g of benzoic acid is 10.29 mL.
