ANSWER:
Solution: Step1: a) Given volume of Ba(OH) solution = 50.0 mL = 50/1000 L = 0.050 L 2 Molarity of the Ba(OH) solution2 0.101 M Therefore, number of moles of Ba(OH) = Volume of th2solution in litres X Molarity = 0.050 L X 0.101 M = 0.005 mol Now, the reaction between HCl and Ba(OH) takes place in th2following manner: 2HCl(aq) + Ba(OH) --------2-> MgCl (aq) + 2H O 2 2 In the above equation, it is seen that, 1 mole of Ba(OH) requires 2 mole2of HCl for complete neutralization. Therefore, 0.005 moles of Mg(OH) will require 2 x 0.005 = 0.01) moles of HCl for complete neutralization. Now, using the expression for molarity, we can calculate the volume of HCl required. Volume of HCl in litres = Number of moles of HCl / Molarity = 0.01 mol / 0.120 M = 0.0833 L = 0.0833 X 1000 mL = 83.3 mL Thus, required volume of HCl is 83.3 mL Step2: b) Mass of NaOH = 0.200 g Molar mass of NaOH = 40.01 g/mol Therefore, number of moles of NaOH = 0.200 / 40.01 = 0.005 mol The reaction between H2SO4 and NaOH takes place in the following ma
