![**Titration of Hydrochloric Acid with Sodium Hydroxide**
In this example, 100 mL of 0.10 M HCl is titrated with a solution of 0.10 M NaOH. After the addition of 20 mL of the NaOH solution, the pH is determined.
**Explanation:**
1. **Titration Process**: This is a neutralization reaction where the acid (HCl) reacts with the base (NaOH) to form water and salt (NaCl).
2. **Initial Conditions**: The initial concentration of HCl is 0.10 M in 100 mL.
3. **Addition of NaOH**: 20 mL of 0.10 M NaOH is added to the solution.
To find the pH:
- Calculate the moles of HCl initially present:
\[
\text{Moles of HCl} = \text{Volume} \times \text{Concentration} = 0.1 \, \text{L} \times 0.10 \, \text{mol/L} = 0.01 \, \text{mol}
\]
- Calculate the moles of NaOH added:
\[
\text{Moles of NaOH} = 0.02 \, \text{L} \times 0.10 \, \text{mol/L} = 0.002 \, \text{mol}
\]
- Determine the amount of HCl remaining after the reaction:
\[
\text{Remaining HCl} = 0.01 \, \text{mol} - 0.002 \, \text{mol} = 0.008 \, \text{mol}
\]
- Calculate the new concentration of HCl in the total volume (120 mL = 0.12 L):
\[
\text{Concentration of HCl} = \frac{0.008 \, \text{mol}}{0.12 \, \text{L}} = 0.067 \, \text{mol/L}
\]
- Calculate the pH:
\[
\text{pH} = -\log[0.067] \approx 1.17
\]
This neutralization reduces the initial acidity, raising the pH as](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F611625c6-9dd6-4a84-b59d-ca7aa1a3b1b7%2Ff7e77340-4465-42a8-974f-f75547e97178%2Fkldh5id_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
