Chemistry Question on Expressing Concentration of Solutions

What amount of water is added in 40ml40\, ml of NaOH(0.1N)NaOH (0.1\, N ) which is neutralized by 50ml50\, ml of HCl(0.2N)HCl (0.2\, N ) ?

A

80 ml

B

60 ml

C

40 ml

D

90 ml

Answer

60 ml

Explanation

Solution

Using Normality equation N1V1=N2V2N _{1} V _{1}= N _{2} V _{2} 0.1×V1=0.2×500.1 \times V_{1}=0.2 \times 50 V1=0.2×500.1=100mlV_{1}=\frac{0.2 \times 50}{0.1}=100\, ml Total volume =NaOH+= NaOH + water 100=40+x100=40+x So amount of water added is 60ml60\, ml.
