An analyst in a laboratory performs a titration to determine the concentration of a sodium carbonate (Na2CO3\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3Na2​CO3​) solution.

a.

The analyst measures 25.0 cm325.0\text{ cm}^325.0 cm3 of the sodium carbonate solution with a concentration of 4.24 g/dm34.24\text{ g/dm}^34.24 g/dm3. Calculate the mass of sodium carbonate in this sample. Use the conversion: 1 dm3=1000 cm31\text{ dm}^3 = 1000\text{ cm}^31 dm3=1000 cm3.

b.

During the titration, the following volumes of dilute hydrochloric acid were recorded to neutralize the sodium carbonate:

  • Trial 1: 24.15 cm324.15\text{ cm}^324.15 cm3
  • Trial 2: 21.20 cm321.20\text{ cm}^321.20 cm3
  • Trial 3: 24.25 cm324.25\text{ cm}^324.25 cm3
  • Trial 4: 24.20 cm324.20\text{ cm}^324.20 cm3

Identify the anomalous trial and calculate the mean volume of acid used, using only the concordant results.
