SHOW SET-UP FOR ALL PROBLEMS

1. What mass of solid NaOH is needed to make 500.0 mL of 0.2532 M NaOH solution?

2. What volume of 7.0 M NaOH is needed to make 25.00 mL of 2.5 M NaOH?

3. Determine the concentration of NaOH if 32.51 mL of 0.1000M H2SO4 is needed to neutralize 15.00 mL of NaOH according to the following balanced equation:

2NaOH(aq) + H2SO4(aq) ----> Na2SO4(aq) + 2H2O(l)

4. Determine the molar mass of an unknown acidic solid if 1.235 g of acid is neutralized by 28.46 mL of 0.1922M NaOH. The unknown acid and NaOH react in a 1:1 mole ratio.

5. Read and record the volume of liquid in the following burets:
