Analytical Chemistry Question 236
Question: 100 $ cm^{3} $ of 0.1 N $ HCl $ solution is mixed with 100 $ cm^{3} $ of 0.2 N $ NaOH $ solution. The resulting solution is
[MP PET 1996]
Options:
A) 0.1 N and the solution is basic
B) 0.05 N and the solution is basic
C) 0.1 N and the solution is acidic
D) 0.05 N and the solution is acidic
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
Acid = 0.1 × 100 = 10 Base = 0.2 × 100 = 20 \ solution will be basic. 0.1N of HCl is neutralised by 0.1 N of NaOH and the remaining 0.1N of NaOH is in 200 $ cm^{3} $ of solution. \ resulting normality = 0.05 N, basic.
