In titrating 0.20 M hydrochloric acid, HCl, with 0.20 M NaOH at 25°C, the solution at the equivalence point is

c) 0.10M NaCl

Explanation:

Options are:

a) 0.20M NaCl

b) Very acidic

c) 0.10M NaCl

d) 0.10M HCl + 0.20M NaOH

e) Slightly acidic.

Based on the reaction:

NaOH + HCl → H₂O + NaCl

You can see than 1 mole of NaOH reacts per mole of HCl producing 1 mole of NaCl

Assuming 1L of 0.20M HCl reacts with 1L of NaOH, moles of both compounds are:

1L * 0.20mol/L = 0.20 moles reacts. That means moles of NaCl produced are 0.20moles in 2L. Molarity of NaCl is:

0.20mol / 2L = 0.10M NaCl

That means, right option is:

answer: c. the experiment shows that the red substance experienced a chemical change.

explanation: chemical change is the change in which chemical composition of the substance changes. physical change is the change in which there is no change in chemical composition.

chemical changes are accompanied by following changes:

a) precipitate formation

b) energy is released or absorbed

c) formation of bubbles

d) change in color

as it is given that the red color has disappeared and there is production of gas, it means the red substance has undergone a chemical change.
