Exactly 17.0 mL of a H2SO4 solution was required to neutralize 45.0 mL of 0.235 M NaOH. What was the concentration of the H2SO4 solution? Given: H2SO4 (aq) + 2NaOH (aq) → 2H2O (l) + Na2SO4 (aq) Exactly 17.0 mL of a H2SO4 solution was required to neutralize 45.0 mL of 0.235 M NaOH. What was the concentration of the H2SO4 solution?

Answer:

Molarity for the sulfuric acid is 0.622 M

Step-by-step explanation:

When we neutralize an acid with a base, molarity of both . both volume are the same. The formula is:

M acid . volume of acid = M base . volume of base

M acid = unknown

Volume of acid = 17 mL

Volume of base = 45 mL

M base = 0.235 M

Therefore, we replace: M acid . 17 mL = 0.235 M . 45 mL

M acid = (0.235 M . 45 mL) / 17 mL

M acid = 0.622 M
