Answer:

The correct solution is "93.48 M".

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

The number of moles of NaOH will be:

=
0.753* 38.5

=
28.99 \ mol

The number of moles of needed
H_2SO_4 will be:

=
(1)/(2)* 28.99

=
14.49 \ mol

hence,

The concentration of
H_2SO_4 solution will be:

=
(Number \ of \ moles)/(Volume \ of \ solution)

=
(14.49)/(0.155)

=
93.48 \ M
