Question 22

Multiple Choice

A student discovers a bottle of NaOH with a partially destroyed label. How can the concentration be determined without using a pH meter?


A) The student can set-up a titration experiment, where a standardized HCl solution is used to titrate the NaOH. The moles of H+ and OH- are equal at the equivalence point, therefore, the concentration of NaOH can be calculated.
B) The student can set-up a titration experiment, where a standardized HCl solution is used to titrate the NaOH. The pH at the equivalence point should be 7 since this is a neutralization reaction, therefore, the concentration of NaOH is 1 x 10-7 M.
C) The student can set-up a titration experiment, where a standardized NaOH solution is used to titrate HCl. The moles of H+ and OH- are equal at the equivalence point, therefore, the concentration of NaOH can be calculated.
