Sodium hydroxide neutralises hydrochloric acid as shown in the equation:
NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) i NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)
(4)
dm3
(3)
The student found that 27.20 cm3 of 0.100 moles per dm3 sodium hydroxide neutralised 5.00 cm3 of hydrochloric acid.
Calculate the concentration of the hydrochloric acid in moles per dm3.
Give your answer to three significant figures.

Explanation:

Mole ratio of NaOH : HCl = 1: 1

Moles of NaOH used = 0.1 mol/1000 cm3 × 27.20 cm3

= 2.72 × 10^-3 mol

Therefore moles of HCl used is also 2.72 × 10^-3 mol

So concentration of HCl can be found by dividing the no.of moles of HCl by the volume of HCl as follows

2.72 × 10^-3 mol/ 5cm3

1000cm3 = 1dm3

Therefore,

1cm3 = 1/1000 dm3

5cm3 = 5/1000 dm3

HCl conc. = 2.72 × 10^-3 mol/ 5×10^-3 dm3

= 0.544 moldm-3
