Achemistry student weighs out 0.306 g of citric acid (h3c6h5o7), a triprotic acid, into a 250 ml volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark with distilled water. he plans to titrate the acid with 0.1000 m naoh solution. calculate the volume of naoh solution the student will need to add to reach the final equivalence point. be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

The content of manganese (mn) in steel was determined spectrophotometrically and with the use of the standard addition method. an unknown sample of mn from a digested steel sample gave an absorbance of 0.185 when analyzed spectrophotometrically. when 5.00 ml of solution containing 95.5 ppm mn was added to 50.0 ml of the unknown steel solution (digested sample), the absorbance was 0.248. calculate the concentration, in parts-per-million (ppm), of mn in the digested steel sample solution.
