Answer:
50.0mL 0.10M NaOH
Explanation:
The chemical equation of H₂SO₄ with NaOH to reach the first equivalence point is:
H₂SO₄ + NaOH → HSO₄⁻ + Na⁺ + H₂O
<em>Where 1 mole of the H₂SO₄ reacts per mole of NaOH</em>
<em />
The initial moles of H₂SO₄ are:
50.0mL = 0.0500L × (0.10 mol / L) = 0.0050 moles of H₂SO₄
As 1 mole of the acid reacts per mole of NaOH, to reach the first equivalence point we need to add 0.0050 moles of NaOH. As molarity of NaOH is 0.10M, the volume that we need to add to reach 1st equivalence point is:
0.0050 moles NaOH ₓ (1L / 0.10 moles NaOH) = 0.050L NaOH 0.10M =
<h3>50.0mL 0.10M NaOH</h3>
