Question

A 25.0 mL of an H₂SO₄ solution is titrated with 35.65 mL of a 0.1095 M standardized NaOH solution. What is the concentration of the acid solution?
Options
A 0.0324 M
B 0.0781 M
Correct Answer
C 0.0995 M
D 0.1266 M
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

H₂SO₄ + 2NaOH → Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O. Moles NaOH = 0.03565 L × 0.1095 M = 0.003904 mol. Moles H₂SO₄ = 0.003904/2 = 0.001952 mol. Molarity H₂SO₄ = 0.001952/0.0250 = 0.07808 M.

Hint

Use the 1:2 mole ratio between H₂SO₄ and NaOH.
