(a) Total number of moles present in 10 mL of 0.2 M calcium hydroxide are
1000
10×0.2
=0.002 moles.
Total number of moles present in 25 mL of 0.1 M HCl are

1 mole of calcium hydroxide reacts with 2 moels of HCl.
0.0025 moles of HCl will react with 0.00125 moles of calium hydroxide.
Total number of moles of calcium hydroxide unreacted are 0.002−0.00125=0.00075 moles.
Total volume of the solution is 10+25=35 mL.
The molarity of the solution is

What will be the pH of mixture of 500 mL of 0.1 M HCl and 250 mL of 0.1 M Ca(OH)2solution at 25°C?
Answer:
(a) Here, for base
(a) Here, for base M1 = [OH-] = 2 × 0.2 = 0.4 M
(a) Here, for base M1 = [OH-] = 2 × 0.2 = 0.4 MV1 = 10 ml so, M1V1 = 0.4 × 10 = 4 Mml
(a) Here, for base M1 = [OH-] = 2 × 0.2 = 0.4 MV1 = 10 ml so, M1V1 = 0.4 × 10 = 4 Mml for acid,
(a) Here, for base M1 = [OH-] = 2 × 0.2 = 0.4 MV1 = 10 ml so, M1V1 = 0.4 × 10 = 4 Mml for acid, M2 = [H+] = 0.1 M
(a) Here, for base M1 = [OH-] = 2 × 0.2 = 0.4 MV1 = 10 ml so, M1V1 = 0.4 × 10 = 4 Mml for acid, M2 = [H+] = 0.1 MV2 = 25 ml so, M2V2 = 0.1 × 25ml = 2.5 Mml
(a) Here, for base M1 = [OH-] = 2 × 0.2 = 0.4 MV1 = 10 ml so, M1V1 = 0.4 × 10 = 4 Mml for acid, M2 = [H+] = 0.1 MV2 = 25 ml so, M2V2 = 0.1 × 25ml = 2.5 Mml here, strength of base (M1V1) > strength of acid (M2V2) so, solution is basic .
pH = -log[H+] = -lo g(5 × 10^-2 ) = 2 - 0.6990
g(5 × 10^-2 ) = 2 - 0.6990 = 1.301 ≈ 1.3
