Solution
The sulphuric acid which has the chemical formula as H2SO4 is also known as oil of vitriol. It is a mineral acid that is composed of sulphur, oxygen and hydrogen elements in it. It is colourless, odourless and viscous liquid that is soluble in water.
Formula used:
Concentration of final sulphuric acid mixture, the molarity formula,
=Total VolumeM1V1+M2V2
Complete answer:
Here in the question that is given down, as we focused that is it the direct substitution into the formula, we have to look in to the values before substituting,
M1=0⋅50M
V1=100025=0⋅025L
Here, M1 and V1 are the molarity and volume of the first sulphuric acid. Here the volume is directly converted from mili-litre to litre.
M2=0⋅25M
V2=0⋅075L
And now in order to obtain the total volume we have to add up the two volumes of the two sulphuric acid.
V=0⋅025+0⋅075=0⋅1L
Now coming to the main part of the question, we have our final concentration,
=Total VolumeM1V1+M2V2
Now it is all the direct substitution,
=0⋅1(0⋅5×0⋅025)+(0⋅25×0⋅075)
After the calculation we get our answer which then we have to look into the options to see if there is the actual solution to look into the nearer answer to them.
=0⋅3125M
After looking into the final answer we know the right option already,
Hence, the right option is (B) .
Note:
Molarity changes with the temperature because the volume changes with the temperature. So, we need to measure molarity by keeping temperature unchanged. So , in a lab when you are preparing the solution make sure to note down the temperature otherwise it will affect the calculations
