A student conducted a titration to determine the concentration of a mystery bottle of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) found in the lab with no label. The balanced equation for the reaction is below: 2 NaOH + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + 2 H2O

a) If 400.0 mL of 1.7 M NaOH was used in the reaction, how many moles of H2SO4 were used in the reaction?
b) If there were 100.0 mL of the H2SO4 solution at the beginning of the reaction, what was the molarity of the H2SO4 solution?

vanderwaal's forces of attraction are the electrostatic intermolecular forces that exist in a molecule due to the temporary or permanent dipoles that are developed in a molecule. in , the major intermolecular forces are dipole-dipole interactions as the molecule is polar (bent structure). so the vanderwaal's forces of interaction in between molecules are the permanent dipole-dipole interactions that develop due to the dipole that exists in between the polar h - s bond. the positively charged hydrogen atom is attracted towards the negative end of the dipole that is sulfur of the adjacent molecule. therefore, these forces of attraction are relatively stronger than that of london dispersion forces that exist in non polar molecules.
