The concentration of the
[H_2SO_4] solution in the image is 0.1481 M.

Balanced chemical equation for the titration reaction:

2 NaOH +
[H_2SO_4]
Na_2SO_4 + 2 H_2O

According to the equation, 2 moles of NaOH react with 1 mole of
H_2SO_4. Therefore, the concentration of the
[H_2SO_4] solution can be calculated using the following equation:


[H_2SO_4] = (Molarity of NaOH solution) * (Volume of NaOH solution used) / (Volume of
H_2SO_4 solution used)

In this case, the molarity of the NaOH solution is 0.1217 M and the volume of NaOH solution used is 30.57 mL. The volume of H2SO4 solution used is 25.00 mL.

Substituting these values into the equation above, we get:


[H_2SO_4] = (0.1217 M) * (30.57 mL) / (25.00 mL)


[H_2SO_4] = 0.1481 M

Question:-

25.00 ml. of a H₂SO₄ solution with an unknown concentration was titrated to a phenolphthalein endpoint with 30.57 m² of a 0.1217 M NaOH solution.

What is the concentration of the H₂SO₄ solution?
