Solution

The correct option is C 0.24
Given concentration of H+=100.3=12=0.5
No. of moles of HCl = (Concentration)×Volume = (0.5)×80100=0.04 moles
No. of moles of magnesium =0.2424=0.01 moles
Mg+2HClMgCl2+H2
1 mole of Mg and 2 moles of HCl is needed.
So, 0.02 moles are left.
pH=log(0.02×100080)=0.24
