What is the molarity of a naoh solution if 15.5 ml of a 0.220 m h2so4 solution is required to neutralize a 25.0-ml sample of the naoh solution?

Respuesta :

The molarity of a NaOH solution is 0.273

How do we find the Molarity of NaOH solution?

The molarity of the NaOH solution used in the neutralization reaction has been 0.273 x [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] M.

The neutralization reaction has resulted in the formation of the salt and water on reacting an acid with a base. In the neutralization reaction, the strength of acid and base can be given as

For the neutralization of 1 mole of sulfuric acid, 2 moles of NaOH have been required.

[tex]2NaOH + H2SO4[/tex] →[tex]Na2SO4 + H2O[/tex]

The moles of sulfuric acid can be given as:

Moles = Molarity × Volume

Given, the molarity of acid (H2SO4) = 0.220 M

The volume of acid = 15.5 ml = 0.0155 L

Volume of base (NaOH) = 25 ml = 0.025 L

Moles of H2S04 = 0.220× 0.0155mol

Moles of  H2SO4 = 3.41  mol.

Since 1 mole of H2SO4  = 2 moles NaOH

3.14 moles of H2SO4 = 3.14 × 2 moles NaOH

3.14 moles of H2SO4 = 6.28 moles of NaOH.

The neutralization of 0.220 M H2SO4 requires 6.28 moles of NaOH. The strength of the NaOH solution will be:

Molarity =[tex]\frac{Moles}{Volume(L)}[/tex]

Molarity = [tex]\frac{6.28}{0.025}[/tex]

The molarity of a NaOH solution is 0.273
