Solution

98% H2SO4 by mass

98g of H2SO4 in 100g of solution.

Moles of H2SO4=98g98gmol1=1mol

Density=1.80mol1

D=MV

V=MD=1001.80=55.55mL=55.55×103L

Volume of solution=55.55×103L

Molarityofsolution=No. of molesVolume of solution in L=1mol55.55×103L

$ =18.001\ M$

We will use formula

M1V1=M2V2

M1=18MM2=0.1

V1=?V2=1L

18×V1=0.1×1

V1=0.1×118=0.0055L

The volume of acid required to make one litre of solution is 0.0055L or 5.55 mL
