MHT CET Chemistry Question (2026) — Solution

Question

What is the pH of resulting solution when 20 mL M 10 NaOH and 10 mL M 10 H _2 SO _4 are mixed together ?

Options

  1. A. 0
  2. B. 2
  3. C. 7
  4. D. 10

Answer

C. 7

Step-by-step solution

Millimoles of NaOH = 20 1 10 = 2 mmol Millimoles of OH ^ - = 2 mmol Millimoles of H _2 SO _4 = 10 1 10 = 1 mmol Millimoles of H ^ + = 1 2 = 2 mmol Since the millimoles of H ^ + and OH ^ - are equal, complete neutralization takes place. The resulting solution contains Na _2 SO _4, which is a salt of a strong acid and a strong base. Therefore, the solution is neutral and its pH is 7. Answer: 7
