Q25 / 90 · JEE Main 2023 (29 Jan Shift 2) · Chemistry

The volume of HCl, containing 73g L-1, required to completely neutralise NaOH obtained by reacting 0.69 g of metallic sodium with water, is _____ mL. (Nearest Integer)

(Given : molar Masses of Na,Cl,O,H are 23,35.5,16 and 1g mol-1 respectively)

Correct answer: 15

Solution

Mole of NaOH=0.6923=3×10-2

2Na+2H2O⟶2NaOH+H2

Number of moles of Na = Number of moles of NaOH

NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H2O

Moles of HCl = moles of NaOH

⇒ (Molarity × V)HCl = Number of moles of NaOH

⇒ 7336.5 × 1 × V = 0.03

⇒V = 15 × 10-3 Lit

⇒ V = 15 mL 

 

Hence, the correct answer is 15.
