A 43 mL sample of a solution of sulfuric acid is neutralized by 24 mL of a 0.053 M sodium hydroxide solution. Calculate the molarity of the sulfuric acid solution.
Answer in units of mol/L.

Here is my work so far. I thought I have successfully solved the problem, but apparently my answer Is wrong.

H2SO4 + 2NaOH = 2H2O + Na2SO4

.024L NaOH x .053M NaOH = .001272 mol NaOH
.001272 mol NaOH x (1 mol H2SO4/2 mol NaOH) / .043L H2SO4
= .0147906977

  4. The website we use for our homework tells you when your answer is wrong right when you type it in, and mine is apparently wrong.

  5. You answer of 0,0147906,,,,, should be rounded to 0.015, You may not have rounded. You may not have added M or mols/L ater the 0.015. Most of these auto checking websites are unforgiving on significant figures. Try the 0.015 and if that doesn't work bry 0.015 M.

  8. Try 0.030 as an answer. Maybe the website wants to know what the polarity is if you were just titrating to obtain the first equivalent point. I agree with 0.015, but 0.030 is worth a shot.
