Solution

The correct option is B 40 ml
The molecular mass of oxalic acid dihydrate (COOHCOOH. 2H2O )=126

Gram equivalent= 1262=63 ; (basicity=2)

Normality of oxalic acid=mass×1000gram equivalent×volume =6.3×100063×250=0.4 N

N1V1=N2V2
Where, 1 represents for H2SO4 and 2 reresents for NaOH.

10×0.4=V×0.1.

V=10×0.40.1=40ml

Hence, option B is correct.
