Choice A: approximately $0.12\; \rm M$ .

Explanation:

Note that the unit of concentration, $\rm M$ , typically refers to moles per liter (that is: $1\; \rm M = 1\; \rm mol\cdot L^{-1}$ .)

On the other hand, the volume of the two solutions in this question are apparently given in $\rm cm^3$ , which is the same as $\rm mL$ (that is: $1\; \rm cm^{3} = 1\; \rm mL$ .) Convert the unit of volume to liters:

$V(\mathrm{H_2SO_4}) = 20\; \rm cm^{3} = 20 \times 10^{-3}\; \rm L = 0.02\; \rm L$ . $V(\mathrm{NaOH}) = 30\; \rm cm^{3} = 30 \times 10^{-3}\; \rm L = 0.03\; \rm L$ .

Calculate the number of moles of $\rm H_2SO_4$ formula units in that $0.02\; \rm L$ of the $0.09\; \rm M$ solution:

$\begin{aligned}n(\mathrm{H_2SO_4}) &= c(\mathrm{H_2SO_4}) \cdot V(\mathrm{H_2SO_4})\\ &= 0.02 \; \rm L \times 0.09 \; \rm mol\cdot L^{-1} = 0.0018\; \rm mol \end{aligned}$ .

Note that $\rm H_2SO_4$ (sulfuric acid) is a diprotic acid. When one mole of $\rm H_2SO_4$ completely dissolves in water, two moles of $\rm H^{+}$ ions will be released.

On the other hand, $\rm NaOH$ (sodium hydroxide) is a monoprotic base. When one mole of $\rm NaOH$ formula units completely dissolve in water, only one mole of $\rm OH^{-}$ ions will be released.

$\rm H^{+}$ ions and $\rm OH^{-}$ ions neutralize each other at a one-to-one ratio. Therefore, when one mole of the diprotic acid $\rm H_2SO_4$ dissolves in water completely, it will take two moles of $\rm OH^{-}$ to neutralize that two moles of $\rm H^{+}$ produced. On the other hand, two moles formula units of the monoprotic base $\rm NaOH$ will be required to produce that two moles of $\rm OH^{-}$ . Therefore, $\rm NaOH$ and $\rm H_2SO_4$ formula units would neutralize each other at a two-to-one ratio.

$\rm H_2SO_4 + 2\; NaOH \to Na_2SO_4 + 2\; H_2O$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{n(\mathrm{NaOH})}{n(\mathrm{H_2SO_4})} = \frac{2}{1} = 2$ .

Previous calculations show that $0.0018\; \rm mol$ of $\rm H_2SO_4$ was produced. Calculate the number of moles of $\rm NaOH$ formula units required to neutralize that

$\begin{aligned}n(\mathrm{NaOH}) &= \frac{n(\mathrm{NaOH})}{n(\mathrm{H_2SO_4})}\cdot n(\mathrm{H_2SO_4}) \\&= 2 \times 0.0018\; \rm mol = 0.0036\; \rm mol\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the concentration of a $0.03\; \rm L$ solution that contains exactly $0.0036\; \rm mol$ of $\rm NaOH$ formula units:

$\begin{aligned}c(\mathrm{NaOH}) &= \frac{n(\mathrm{NaOH})}{V(\mathrm{NaOH})} = \frac{0.0036\; \rm mol}{0.03\; \rm L} = 0.12\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

Answer from: Quest

the number of valence electrons for each molecule or ion is shown beneath the structure. remember hydrogen will not have more than two electrons. this hydrogen is part of a covalent bond (sharing two electrons). a double bond here would cause hydrogen to share four electrons with phosphorus.

question: ray weighs 100 kilograms, his wrestling partner, bobby, weighs 50 kilograms. if ray moves at 4 m s , how fast will bobby have to run at him to apply an equal amount of kinetic energy?

answer: 8 m/s he needs to run twice as fast to keep up so he has some work to do

explanation: if the mass has units of kilograms and the velocity of meters per second, the kinetic energy has units of kilograms-meters squared per second squared.

The ozone molecule o3 has a permanent dipole moment of 1.8×10−30 cm. although the molecule is very slightly bent-which is why it has a dipole moment-it can be modeled as a uniform rod of length 2.5×10−10 m with the dipole moment perpendicular to the axis of the rod. suppose an ozone molecule is in a 8000 n/c uniform electric field. in equilibrium, the dipole moment is aligned with the electric field. but if the molecule is rotated by a small angle and released, it will oscillate back and forth in simple harmonic motion.what is the frequency f of oscillation?
