10mathrm~mL of 2mathrm~M~NaOH solution is added to 20mathrm~mL of 1mathrm~M~HCl solution kept in a beaker. Now, 10mathrm~mL of this mixture is poured into a volumetric flask of 100mathrm~mL containing 2 moles of mathrmHCl and made the volume upto the mark with distilled water. The solution in this flask is :

Solution & Explanation

### Related Formula Number of millimoles (n) is given by: n = M times V_mathrmmL Molarity (M) of a diluted mixture: M = fractextTotal molestextTotal Volume in Liters ### Core Logic Evaluate the first mixing step to determine the net acid-base state: - Millimoles of mathrmNaOH = 10mathrm~mL times 2mathrm~M = 20mathrm~mmol - Millimoles of mathrmHCl = 20mathrm~mL times 1mathrm~M = 20mathrm~mmol Since millimoles are equal, mathrmHCl and mathrmNaOH completely neutralize each other, producing a neutral aqueous salt solution. ### Step 1: Analyze transfer to volumetric flask Taking 10mathrm~mL of this neutralized solution provides no excess mathrmH^+ or mathrmOH^- ions. It is added to a volumetric flask containing 2mathrm~mol of pure mathrmHCl. ### Step 2: Calculate final molarity of mathrmHCl The volume of the flask is made up to 100mathrm~mL = 0.1mathrm~L: M = frac2mathrm~mol0.1mathrm~L = 20mathrm~M Hence, the resulting solution is 20mathrm~M~HCl. ### Pattern Recognition Stoichiometric neutralizations are evaluated by setting up mole/millimole balance charts. Once stoichiometric equivalence (MV_textacid = MV_textbase) is reached, any sub-aliquot of that solution remains completely neutral. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry Class 11 Chemistry: Ionic Equilibrium
