Answer:
C. 0.191 M
Explanation:
Our goal for this question, is to calculate the concentration of the HCl solution. For this, in the experiment, a solution of NaOH was used to find the moles of HCl. Therefore, our first step is to know the <u>reaction between HCl and NaOH</u>:
The "<u>titrant"</u> in this case is the NaOH solution. If we know the concentration of NaOH (0.100M) and the volume of NaOH (38.2 mL=0.0382 L), we can calculate the moles using the <u>molarity equation</u>:
Now, in the reaction, we have a <u>1:1 molar ratio</u> between HCl and NaOH (1 mol of HCl is consumed for each mole of NaOH added). Therefore we will have the same amount of moles of HCl in the solution:
If we want to calculate the molarity of the HCl solution we have to <u>divide by the litters</u> of HCl used in the experiment (20 mL= 0.02 L):
The concentration of the HCl solution is 0.191 M
