Question:

An aqueous solution containing 6.5 g of NaCl of 90% purity was subjected to electrolysis. After the complete electrolysis, the solution was evaporated to get solid NaOH. The volume of 1 M acetic acid required to neutralise NaOH obtained above is

Show Hint

Moles of $NaCl$ = Moles of $NaOH$ produced = Moles of acid required for neutralization.

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Find Pure NaCl
Weight of pure $NaCl = 6.5 \times 0.9 = 5.85~g$.
Step 2: Determine Equivalents

Equivalents of $NaCl = 5.85 / 58.5 = 0.1$. This yields 0.1 equivalents of $NaOH$.
Step 3: Neutralization Calculation

Volume of 1 M acetic acid $= \frac{0.1 \times 1000}{1} = 100~cm^{3}$.
Final Answer: (c)
