Solution
The correct option is B Both statements are CORRECT, and Statement II is the CORRECT explanation of Statement I. H3PO4 is tribasic acid. n=3
∴ moles of H⊕=3×0.2=0.6
H2SO4 is dibasic acid. n=2
∴ moles of H⊕=2×0.3=0.6
∴ Both will require some volume of NaOH
∴ Statement I & II both are correct
& statement II is the correct explanation for the statement I
