Correct Answer: Option E
Explanation:
\(2NaOH + H_{2}SO_{4} = Na_{2}SO_{4} + 2H_{2}O\)
V x 0.5M = 2(10 x 1.25)
0.5V = 2 x 12.5
0.5V = 25
V = \(\frac{25}{0.5}\) = \(50cm^{3}\)
\(2NaOH + H_{2}SO_{4} = Na_{2}SO_{4} + 2H_{2}O\)
V x 0.5M = 2(10 x 1.25)
0.5V = 2 x 12.5
0.5V = 25
V = \(\frac{25}{0.5}\) = \(50cm^{3}\)
