Question

A 50.0 mL sample of an aqueous H2SO4 solution is titrated with a 0.375 M NaOH solution. The equivalence point is reached with 62.5 mL of the base. The concentration of H2SO4 is ________ M. A 50.0 mL sample of an aqueous H2SO4 solution is titrated with a 0.375 M NaOH solution. The equivalence point is reached with 62.5 mL of the base. The concentration of H2SO4 is ________ M. 0.150 0.234 0.300 0.469 0.938

Answer 1

Answer: The concentration of $H_2SO_4$ is 0.234 M

Explanation:

According to the neutralization law,

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1$ = basicity $H_2SO_4$ = 2

$M_1$ = molarity of $H_2SO_4$ solution = ?

$V_1$ = volume of  $H_2SO_4$ solution = 50.0 ml

$n_2$ = acidity of $NaOH$ = 1

$M_1$ = molarity of $NaOH$ solution = 0.375 M

$V_1$ = volume of  $NaOH$ solution = 62.5 ml

Putting in the values we get:

$2\times M_1\times 50.0=1\times 0.375\times 62.5$

$M_1=0.234M$

Therefore concentration of $H_2SO_4$ is 0.234 M
