Determine the volume of H2SO4 needed to fully react 154.85 g of NaHCO3 according to the reaction.  Assume the concentration of H2SO4 is 0.22 M.



Step-by-Step

  1. The molarity of H2SO4 is given.
  2. Calculate the moles of H2SO4 from the grams of NaHCO3 used. For that, convert the grams of NaHCO3 to moles and then using the mole ratio from the balanced chemical equation convert that to moles of H2SO4.
  3. Calculate the volume of H2SO4 using the equation L = mol / M
