Question

If it takes 67 mL of 3 M KOH to neutralize 480 mL of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) solution, what is the concentration of the H2SO4 solution?

 

Expert Solution
Step 1

Sulfuric acid ( H2SO4 ) reacts with potassium hydroxide ( KOH) to produce potassium sulfate       ( K2SO4)  and water ( H2O ). 

The balanced chemical equation is, 

  H2SO4  + 2 KOH  ----> K2SO4  + 2 H2O
