50 mL of 0.1 mol/L HCl neutralises 20 mL of NaOH solution. What is the concentration of the NaOH?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D. 0.25 mol/L

  1. Step 1: The mole ratio HCl : NaOH is 1 : 1, so Ca Va = Cb Vb.
  2. Step 2: Cb = 0.1 x 50/20 = 0.25 mol/L.
Answer
0.25 mol/L.
Why not the others: 0.04 mol/L, 0.1 mol/L and 0.5 mol/L do not fit.
