Step 1: Calculate the amount of sodium hydroxide in moles

Volume of sodium hydroxide solution = 50.0 ÷ 1,000 = 0.05 dm3

Rearrange:

Concentration in mol/dm3 = amount of solute in molvolume in dm3

Amount of solutein mol = concentration in mol/dm3 × volume in dm3

Amount of sodium hydroxide = 0.300 × 0.05

= 0.01 5mol

Step 2: Find the amount of hydrochloric acid in moles

The balanced equation is: NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

So the mole ratio NaOH:HCl is 1:1

Therefore 0.015 mol of NaOH reacts with 0.015 mol of HCl

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of hydrochloric acid in mol/dm3

Volume of hydrochloric acid = 25.00 ÷ 1000 = 0.025 dm3

Concentration in mol/dm3 = amount of solute in molvolume in dm3

Concentration in mol/dm3 = 0.015/0.025

= 0.6 mol/dm3

Step 4: Calculate the concentration of hydrochloric acid in g/dm3

Relative formula mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5

Mass = relative formula mass × amount

Mass of HCl = 36.5 × 0.6

= 21.9 g

So concentration = 21.9 g/dm3

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
