In a titration, 45.0 cm^(3) of 0.100 mol dm^(-3) sodium hydroxide solution is exactly neutralised by 40.0 cm^(3) of a dilute hydrochloric acid solution. Calculate the concentration of the hydrochloric acid solution in mol dm^(-3).

First of all, summarise everything that you know in a table or in brief notes:NaOH, 45 cm^(3), 0.1 mol dm^(-3)HCl, 40 cm^(3)The first thing that you need to do is to find the number of moles of NaOH. This...
