Question

If it requires 18.2 milliliters of 0.45 molar barium hydroxide to neutralize 38.5 milliliters of nitric acid, solve for the molarity of the nitric acid solution. Show all of the work used to solve this problem.

Answer 1

first write the equation

2HNO3(aq) + Ba(OH)2(aq) => Ba(NO3)2 + 2HOH(l)

Answer 2

then use concentration to find the moles of nitric acid required to neutralize the moles of barium hydroxide
