Q.
100c.c. of N/10NaOH solution is mixed with 100c.c. of N/5HCl solution and the whole volume is made to 1 litre. The pH of the resulting solution will be
We know, for an aicd base mixture, N3(V1+V2)=∣N1V1−N2V2∣
Where, N3(V1+V2)= Number of gram equivalents of HCl (∵ Acid is in excess)
Now, g. equivalents of HCl=∣0.1×0.1−0.1×0.2∣=0.01 ∴ Number of moles =n factor of HCl Number of g equivalents =10.01=0.01 ∴0.01HCl→0.01H++0.01Cl⊖ ⇒PH=−log10[H+]=2
