Equilibrium Question 52
Question: When 100 ml of 1M $ NaOH $ solution is mixed with 10 ml of 10 M $ H_2SO_4, $ the resulting mixture will be [AMU 2002]
Options:
A) Acidic
B) Alkaline
C) Neutral
D) Strongly alkaline
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
$ N_{NaOH}=1\times 1=1N $
$ {N_{H_2SO_4}}=2\times 10=20N $ M.eq. of NaOH $ =1\times 100=100 $ M.eq. of $ H_2SO4=20\times 10=200 $ Thus M.eq. of acid are left and therefore pH< 7, so the resulting mixture will be acidic.
