The student titrated 10 ml of standered 0.15 M HCl with his sodium hydroxide solution. When the titration reached the equivalence point, the student found that he had used
10.3 ml of Sodium hydroxide solution. Calculate the molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution.

0.15 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the neutralization reaction

NaOH + HCl ⇒ NaCl + H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the moles of HCl that reacted

10 mL of 0.15 M HCl was used. The moles of HCl that reacted are:

Step 3: Calculate the moles of NaOH that reacted

The molar ratio of NaOH to HCl is 1:1. Then, the moles of NaOH that reacted are 1.5 × 10⁻³ moles.

Step 4: Calculate the concentration of NaOH

1.5 × 10⁻³ moles of NaOH are in 10.3 mL of solution. The molarity of NaOH is:

"among the transition metal elements, manganese and zinc have a slight lowering of electronegativities. the reason behind this is that the nuclear charges of these elements are slightly weaker than the other transition metal elements due to the way their valence electrons are filled up. both manganese and zinc have their valence electrons filled up to the 4th shell with 1 pair of electrons (4s2) completely occupying it. although the electrons in the 3rd shell (3d) are yet to be paired since the outer most shell is filled up, the ability of the nucleus to attract electrons is lessened. hence,   the electronegativity (or the ability to attract electrons) is lessened."
