Expert Solution
Step 1

Since the reaction taking place is given by 

NaOH + HCl ----> NaCl + H2O

Hence we can say that 1 mole of HCl will need 1 mole of NaOH for the neutralization 

Hence the moles of NaOH needed = moles of HCl present

Since moles of NaOH needed = concentration X volume in L = 0.112 X 13.5 / 1000

And moles of HCl present = concentration of HCl X volume of HCl in L = concentration of HCl X 25 / 1000

Hence equating both we get 

concentration of HCl X 25 / 1000 = 0.112 X 13.5 / 1000

=> concentration of HCl = 0.0605 M
