Question:
1. In a titration of HCl with NaOH, 100.0 mL of the base was required to neutralize 20.0 mL of 5.0 M HCI. What is the molarity of the NaOH? (Be sure to write the neutralization reaction.)
2. In a titration of H_2S0_4 with NaOH, 60.0 mL of 0.020 M NaOH was needed to neutralize 15.0 mL of H_2S0_4. What is the molarity of the acid? (Be sure to write the neutralization reaction.)
Neutralization Reaction:
A neutralization reaction occurs when an acid and a base react with each other. A neutralization reaction's products include salt and water. The water, in this case, results from the reaction between the acid's {eq}\displaystyle \rm H^+ {/eq} ions and the base's {eq}\displaystyle \rm OH^- {/eq} ions. The term "neutral" from "neutralization" implies that the resulting pH of the products is neutral {eq}\displaystyle \rm (pH = 7) {/eq}.

(1) Given:
- {eq}\displaystyle \rm V_b = 100\ mL = 0.1\ L {/eq} is the volume of the base
- {eq}\displaystyle \rm V_a = 20\ mL = 0.02\ L {/eq} is the...
