Answer:

0.080 M

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Concentration of H₂SO₃ = 0.080 M

Concentration of SO₃²¯ =…?

The concentration of SO₃²¯, can be obtained as follow:

H₂SO₃ (aq) <==> 2H⁺ (aq) + SO₃²¯ (aq)

From the balanced equation for above,

1 mole of H₂SO₃ produced 1 mole of SO₃²¯.

Therefore, 0.080 M H₂SO₃ will also produce 0.080 M SO₃²¯.

Thus, the concentration of SO₃²¯ is 0.080 M
