Correct answer: 1

  1. Write the reaction

H2SO4+2NaOH→Na2SO4+2H2O\mathrm{H_2SO_4 + 2NaOH \rightarrow Na_2SO_4 + 2H_2O}H2​SO4​+2NaOH→Na2​SO4​+2H2​O

Sulfuric acid is dibasic, so its normality is:

N=M×2N = M \times 2N=M×2

for acid-base reaction.


  1. Calculate initial equivalents of H2SO4\mathrm{H_2SO_4}H2​SO4​

Given:

  • Volume =100 mL=0.1 L= 100\,\text{mL} = 0.1\,\text{L}=100mL=0.1L
  • Molarity =0.1 M= 0.1\,\text{M}=0.1M

Moles of H2SO4\mathrm{H_2SO_4}H2​SO4​:

0.1×0.1=0.01 mol0.1 \times 0.1 = 0.01\,\text{mol}0.1×0.1=0.01mol

Since 1 mole of H2SO4\mathrm{H_2SO_4}H2​SO4​ gives 2 equivalents:

equivalents of H2SO4=0.01×2=0.02\text{equivalents of } \mathrm{H_2SO_4} = 0.01 \times 2 = 0.02equivalents of H2​SO4​=0.01×2=0.02


  1. Calculate initial equivalents of NaOH\mathrm{NaOH}NaOH

Given:

  • Volume =50 mL=0.05 L= 50\,\text{mL} = 0.05\,\text{L}=50mL=0.05L
  • Molarity =0.1 M= 0.1\,\text{M}=0.1M

Moles of NaOH\mathrm{NaOH}NaOH:

0.1×0.05=0.005 mol0.1 \times 0.05 = 0.005\,\text{mol}0.1×0.05=0.005mol

For NaOH\mathrm{NaOH}NaOH, 1 mole = 1 equivalent, so:

equivalents of NaOH=0.005\text{equivalents of } \mathrm{NaOH} = 0.005equivalents of NaOH=0.005


  1. Find excess acid equivalents after neutralization

Excess acid equivalents=0.02−0.005=0.015\text{Excess acid equivalents} = 0.02 - 0.005 = 0.015Excess acid equivalents=0.02−0.005=0.015


  1. Total volume after mixing

100 mL+50 mL=150 mL=0.15 L100\,\text{mL} + 50\,\text{mL} = 150\,\text{mL} = 0.15\,\text{L}100mL+50mL=150mL=0.15L


  1. Normality of remaining H2SO4\mathrm{H_2SO_4}H2​SO4​

N=equivalentsvolume in L=0.0150.15=0.1 NN = \frac{\text{equivalents}}{\text{volume in L}} = \frac{0.015}{0.15} = 0.1\,\text{N}N=volume in Lequivalents​=0.150.015​=0.1N

Now,

0.1 N=1×10−1 N0.1\,\text{N} = 1 \times 10^{-1}\,\text{N}0.1N=1×10−1N

So the required integer is:

1\boxed{1}1​
