A 150 mL sample of hydrochloric acid (HCl) completely reacted with 60.0 mL of a 0.100 M NaOH solution. The equation for the reaction is given below.

What was the original concentration of the HCl solution?

 0.0400 M

Explanation:

To calculate the volume of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

where,

are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is

are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Thus the original concentration of the HCl solution is 0.0400 M

why is arctic sea ice important? arctic sea ice keeps the polar regions cool and moderate global climate. sea ice has a bright surface; 80 percent of the sunlight that strikes it is reflected back into space. as sea ice melts in the summer, it exposes the dark ocean surface.
