Question

How much .2 M NaOH would you need to add to neutralize 30mL of .5 M HCl

Answer 1

Alexa, to neutralize 30 mL of 0.5 M HCl with 0.2 M NaOH, the moles of both acid and base must be the same.  Calculate the moles in 30 mL of 0.5 M, and then calculate the volume of 0.2 M NaOH necessary to obtain the same number of moles.
