25ml of a solution of barium hydroxide on titration with a 0.1 molar s...
Given:
Volume of barium hydroxide solution (V1) = 25 ml
Volume of hydrochloric acid solution (V2) = 35 ml
Molarity of hydrochloric acid solution (M2) = 0.1 M
To find:
Molarity of barium hydroxide solution (M1)
We can use the equation:
M1V1 = M2V2
Substituting the given values:
M1 * 25 ml = 0.1 M * 35 ml
Simplifying the equation:
M1 = (0.1 M * 35 ml) / 25 ml
M1 = 0.14 M
Therefore, the molarity of the barium hydroxide solution is 0.14 M.
Explanation:
In a titration, the reaction between the acid and base is a neutralization reaction. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) is:
Ba(OH)2 + 2HCl → BaCl2 + 2H2O
From the balanced equation, we can see that 1 mole of barium hydroxide reacts with 2 moles of hydrochloric acid. In the given question, we know the volume of hydrochloric acid used in the titration (35 ml), which means we have used 1/2 mole of hydrochloric acid.
Now, using the equation M1V1 = M2V2, we can calculate the molarity of barium hydroxide solution. By substituting the given values, we get the molarity of barium hydroxide as 0.14 M.
Therefore, the correct answer is option D) 0.07 M.
