In the reaction between sodium hydroxide and sulphuric acid solutions, what volume of 0.5 molar sodium hydroxide would exactly neutralise 10cm3 of 1.25 molar sulphuric acid?

A.

5cm\(^3\)

B.

10cm\(^3\)

C.

20cm\(^3\)

D.

50cm\(^3\)

Correct answer is D

2NaOH + H\(_2\) SO\(_4\)↔Na\(_2\)SO\(_4\) + 2H\(_2\)O

  V x 0.5M = 2(10 x 1.25)

  0.5V = 2 x 12.5

  0.5V = 25

  V = 250.5 = 50cm\(^2\)

Correct computation as it follows the equation specified.
