If 20.0 mLmL of a 0.100 NN acid solution is needed to reach the end point in titration of 32.5 mLmL of a base solution, what is the normality of the base solution

Final answer:

To find the normality of the base solution in a titration, use the formula: Normality of acid x Volume of acid = Normality of base x Volume of base.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a titration, the normality (N) of a solution is a measure of its concentration. To find the normality of the base solution, we can use the formula:

Normality of acid x Volume of acid = Normality of base x Volume of base

Plugging in the given values, we have:

0.100 N x 20.0 mL = Normality of base x 32.5 mL

Dividing both sides by 32.5 mL, we find that the normality of the base solution is 0.062 N.

Answer:

The correct answer is "0.051 N".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Volume,


V_1=20.0 \ mL


V_2=32.5 \ mL

Normality,


N_1=0.1 \ N


N_2=?

As we know,


N_1V_1=N_2V_2

or,


N_2=(N_1V_1)/(V_2)

On putting the values, we get


=(0.1* 20.0)/(32.5)


=(2)/(32.5)


=0.051 \ N
