Solution

H2SO4 + 2 NaOH Na2SO4 + 2 H2OIts given that 1 L of 0.1 M H2SO4 = 0.1 mol H2SO41 L of 0.1 M NaOH = 0.1 mol NaOHAs per the given equation,1 mole of sulphuric acid reacts with 2 moles of NaOH0.1 mol of sulphuric acid reacts with = 21 × 0.1 = 0.2 moleIts given that 0.1 mole of NaOH only. So NaOH acts as a limiting reagent. The acid left out = 0.05 mole2 moles of NaOH gives 1 mole of Na2SO4 0.1 mole of NaOH gives = 12 × 0.1 = 0.05 moleMole = Given mass Molar mass of Na2SO4 Given mass= 0.05 × Molar mass of Na2SO4 = 0.05 × 142 = 7.10 gAs per the volumetric principleV1M1 + V2M2 = V3M3Since the acid and base are given it undergoes neutralisation. So the left out acid or base is calculated. Left out acid = 0.05 molesMolarity = No of molesVolume of the solution = 0.052 = 0.025 mol/L
