Solution

The correct option is A 0.30molL1
From the graph given, the equivalent point is reached at 15mL of H₂SO₄.
Milli-equivalents of an acid or base = n-factor x Molarity x volume (in mL)
n-factor for H₂SO₄ = 2 and for KOH = 1

We know that, at equivalent point,
m.eq. of acid = m.eq. of base
⇒ 2 x 0.20 x 15 = 1 x M x 20
⇒ M = 0.3 mol/L

Hence, option A is correct.
