∙ 12y agoFirst things first: anything that is pH 2.0 is not water, it's a moderately powerful acid. Lemon juice, for instance, is pH 2.0. Orange Juice is pH 3.
Next, we don't know how much of this acid you need to make less acidic. Certainly a glass of lemon juice is going to require less NaOH to bring its pH up than will a barrel of it.

∙ 12y agoTo determine the number of moles of sodium hydroxide required, we first calculate the change in hydrogen ion concentration from pH 2 to pH 3 (pH change of 1 corresponds to a 10-fold change in H+ concentration). Then, we use the balanced chemical equation between sodium hydroxide and water to determine the amount of moles needed for neutralization.
The balanced chemical equation for the neutralization between sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and nitric acid (HNO3) is 1 mol of NaOH reacts with 1 mol of HNO3. Therefore, 20 moles of nitric acid would require 20 moles of sodium hydroxide to neutralize it.
To determine the volume of 6 M sodium hydroxide needed to neutralize 50.0 mL of 2.5 M phosphoric acid, you must first calculate the number of moles of phosphoric acid present (mol = M x L). You then use the balanced chemical equation to determine the mole ratio between phosphoric acid and sodium hydroxide (in this case, it's 2 moles of NaOH for each 1 mole of H3PO4). Finally, you calculate the volume of 6 M sodium hydroxide needed using the molarity and moles obtained.
First, calculate the number of moles of nitric acid present in 3.50 L of 0.700 M solution. Since nitric acid is a diprotic acid, the mole ratio with sodium hydroxide is 1:2. Then, use the mole ratio to determine the number of moles of sodium hydroxide needed to neutralize the nitric acid. Finally, convert the moles of sodium hydroxide to grams using its molar mass.
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between potassium hydroxide (KOH) and nitric acid (HNO3) is 1:1 ratio. Therefore, 3 moles of nitric acid will require 3 moles of potassium hydroxide to neutralize it.
Molarity, not moles. Simple equality will do here.(0.200 M NaOH)(X milliliters) = (0.100 M H3PO4)(5.00 milliliters)0.200X = 0.5X = 2.5 milliliters sodium hydroxide solution needed====================================

The largest volume of 0.100M sodium hydroxide solution would be needed to neutralize a strong acid with a low molarity. This is because a lower molarity acid would require more moles of sodium hydroxide to neutralize it, resulting in a higher volume of the solution being needed.

The balanced equation for the reaction is: 2Na + 2H2O → 2NaOH + H2 From the equation, 2 moles of sodium will produce 2 moles of sodium hydroxide. So, in this case, 2 moles of sodium will produce 2 moles of sodium hydroxide.
In the acid-base reaction where sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid react, the formula is: H2SO4 + 2NaOH --> Na2SO4 + 2H2O. The coefficients shown are necessary to uphold the law of conservation of mass. So, if you have 17 moles of sulfuric acid, you will need twice as many moles of sodium hydroxide, so the answer is 34 moles NaOH.
No amount of sodium sulphate can be formed from sodium hydroxide alone, because sodium sulfate contains sulfur and sodium hydroxide does not. By neutralization with sulphuric acid, one formula unit of sodium sulphate can be formed from two moles of sodium hydroxide, according to the equation 2 NaOH + H2SO4 -> Na2SO4 + 2 H2O.
You can calculate the concentration of a phosphoric acid solution by determining the volume of sodium hydroxide needed to neutralize it in a titration. The molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution and the balanced chemical equation for the reaction will allow you to find the moles of phosphoric acid present, hence the concentration.
You would have 1.5 moles of sodium hydroxide. This is calculated by dividing the mass of sodium hydroxide by its molar mass: 60 grams / 40 grams/mole = 1.5 moles.
The molar mass of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is approximately 40 grams/mol. To find the mass of 25 moles of NaOH, you would multiply the number of moles by the molar mass: 25 mol * 40 g/mol = 1000 grams. So, the mass of 25 moles of sodium hydroxide is 1000 grams.
