  • A Acidic with a molarity of 0.50 M H2SO4
  • B Acidic with a molarity of 0.25 H2SO4
  • C Neutral
  • D Alkaline with a molarity of 0.25 M NaOH
  • E Alkaline with a molarity of 0.50 M NaOH
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation:
The balanced equation for the reaction is:
\(2NaOH + H_2 SO_4 \to Na_2 SO_4 + 2H_2 O\)
\(\therefore 1M H_2 SO_4 \to 2M NaOH\)
\(1M NaOHÂ \to 0.5M H_2 SO_4\)
The resulting solution is Acidic with 0.5M H\(_2\)SO\(_4\).Â
