Hello!

The molarity of the HBr solution is 0,172 M.

Why?

The neutralization reaction between LiOH and HBr is the following:

HBr(aq) + LiOH(aq) → LiBr(aq) + H₂O(l)

To solve this exercise, we are going to apply the common titration equation:


M1*V1=M2*V2


M1=(M2*V2)/(V1)= (0,215 M * 37,5 mL)/(47 mL)=0,172 M

Have a nice day!
