Solution

The correct option is A $200 m l$
$N a H_{2} {P O}_{4} + N a O H \to {N a}_{2} {H P O}_{4} + H_{2} O - (i)$
Moles $= \frac{12}{120}$ $\frac{12}{120}$ $\frac{12}{120}$
${N a}_{2} {H P O}_{4} + N a O H \to {N a}_{3} {P O}_{4} + H_{2} O - (i i)$
Moles $= \frac{12}{120}$ $\frac{12}{120}$ $\frac{12}{120}$
Moles of $N a O H$ required $= \frac{12}{120} + \frac{12}{120}$
$= 0.2$ moles
Now, $M u l a r i t y = \frac{M o l e s}{V o l . o f s o l i n l t r s}$
$∴$ Volume of $N a O H$ solution $= \frac{0.2}{1}$
$= 0.2$ litres
$= 200$ ml
