Na2SO3 reacts with HCIO4 according to the reaction
Na2SO3(aq) + 2HCIO4(aq) → 2NaClO4(aq) + H2O(l) + SO2(g)
You wish to provide a 50% excess of 4.61 wt% aqueous HCIO4 to react with 50.0 mL of 0.0732 M Na2SO3. Calculate the mass of the 4.61 wt% aqueous HCIO4 solution required to provide the 50% excess.
