Answer:
16mL
Explanation:
Using the following formula;
CaVa = CbVb
Where;
Where
Ca = concentration/molarity of acid (M)
Va = volume of acid (mL)
Cb = concentration/molarity of base (M)
Vb = volume of base (mL)
According to the information provided in this question;
Ca (HCl) = 2M
Cb (NaOH) = 5M
Va (HCl) = 40mL
Vb (NaOH) = ?
Using CaVa = CbVb
Vb = CaVa/Cb
Vb = 2 × 40/5
Vb = 80/5
Vb = 16mL
