Hello! I don't usually do this but I am extremely far behind and I was wondering if someone could help explain to me how to do these things. It would mean a lot, I need to get caught up! Okay so the problem is 30 ml of 0.10M NaOh neutralized 25.0ml of HCl. What is the concentration of the HCl? There is actually a few problems I need help with but I would like some help understanding how to do problems like this first.

OpenStudy (ookawaiioo):

They are both strong acid and base.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay and that means...?

OpenStudy (ookawaiioo):

It means they are 1 to 1 in equivalence.

OpenStudy (ookawaiioo):

30 ml of 0.10M NaOh neutralized 25.0ml of HCl. So thats means 0.03 L of 0.10M base, and 0.025L of HCl (acid)

OpenStudy (ookawaiioo):

Use this formula Molarity of base* Liter of base = Molarity of acid* liter of acid

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So would it be 0.10 * 0.03 = ? * 0.025 I am still kind of lost I apologize

OpenStudy (ookawaiioo):

Yes thats the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So in order to find it out I would do the 0.10 * 0.03 which equals 0.003 and would I then divide that by 0.025?

OpenStudy (ookawaiioo):

yes
