Is this calculation correct up here? (about chemistry)

A student prepared a standard oxalic acid (H2C2O4·2H2O) solution and performed a titration to determine the molarity of an unknown sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution.

Use the data given below to find the molarity of the NaOH solution.


Given: Atomic masses: H: 1.008; C: 12.01; O: 16.00; 1 L = 1000 mL.


Mass of H2C2O4·2H2O 1.3245 g 


a) Molar mass of H2C2O4·2H2O ?


2x1.008 + 2x12.01 + 4x16 + 2 x 18 = 126.04 g/mol


What is this question's formula exactly?


b) Moles of H2C2O4·2H2O ?


1.3245 x 1mol/126.04 g mol = 0.010509 mol


Volume of the H2C2O4·2H2O solution 250.0 mL 


c) Molarity of the oxalic acid solution ?


250.0 ml x 1L/1000ml = 0.25 L


M = 0.010509 / 0.25 L = 0.04204 M


d) Moles of oxalic acid in 20.00 mL of the above prepared solution ?


0.04204 x 0.02 L = 0.0008408 moles


Is my answer/calculation correct up to here?

and How to fill these answer below?


e) Moles of NaOH at the equivalence point ?


f) Volume of NaOH solution used in titration 19.70 mL 


g) Molarity of the NaOH solution ?
