5.5*10^-2M in HI and 9.00*10^-3M HF.
I'm kind of confused as to how to go about this question. I knowone is a strong acid (HI) and one is a weak acid (HF) and I figureI will have to use an ICE table of some sort. But in class weusually do acids mixed with bases, not two acids mixedtogether.
If you could please explain how to calculate this and answer it forme, I would greatly appreciate it! :)
Thanks!

My teacher gives us tables to fill out, and I am really confused about how to go about it. Usually she gives us a few bits of information, but I need to learn how to do the conversions on my own. A table usually looks like this (with some procedure text):
compound | mp/bp, C | MW (g/mol) | equi | mmol | g | density (g/mL) | mL |
thiamine-HCl | mp, 260 (dec) | 337.3 | (solid) | XXX | |||
benzaldehyde | bp, 178-179 | 1.044 | |||||
NaOH, 10% (w/v) | XXX | 40.0 | XXX | ||||
This table is an example for the formation of benzoin. The procedure involves .420 g thiamene HCl, 1.0 mL 10% NaOH, and 1.20 mL of benzaldehyde. I can fill in those things, but I don't know how to fill in the other blanks. For example, how do you calculate equiv (from any of the above)?
From here, how do I calculate theoretical yield? I know that I need to start with the limiting reagent, but how do I determine which one that is?
Thanks!!!! I can usually get help from my friends, but I need to know how to do these calculations (specifically equiv and mmol) on my own.
