Answer:
M of HNO₃ is 0.119M
Explanation:
A basic concept of titration is that in equivalence point:
mmoles of acid = mmoles of base
We have data from base and we only have data from volume of acid.
In a case our titration is a strong acid against a strong base.
We apply formula:
M of acid . Vol of acid = M of base . Vol of base
M of acid . 21.8 mL = 0.137M . 19 mL
M of acid = (0.137M . 19 mL) / 21.8 mL
M of acid = 0.119 M
When we neutralize all the titrant we reach the equivalence point.
At this point, pH = 7
2HNO₃ + Ca(OH)₂ → Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2H₂O
