Solution

The correct option is D 0.227 M
No. of moles of H2SO4 reacted = molarity x volume
= 1 M x 100mL
= 0.1 moles
Weight of H2SO4 = density x volume
=1.50 x 100 = 150 g
Weight of water reacted with H2SO4=400g
Total mass of the resulting solutionH2SO4=150+400g=550g
Total volume of the resulting solutionH2SO4 =5501.25=440mL
Molarity =no. of molesvolume=0.1440×1000=0.227M
