50.0 ml of 0.010m naoh was titrated with 0.50m hcl using a dropper pipet. if the average drop from the pipet has a volume of 0.040 ml, calculate how many drops of hcl are needed to reach the endpoint of the titration.

25 drops of acid is required to neutralize the 50.0 ml of 0.010m of NaOH in the experiment.

The equation of the reaction is;

NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) ---------> NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

We can use the titration formula;

CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB

CA= concentration of acid

VA = volume of acid

CB = concentration of base

VB = volume of base

NA = number of moles of acid

NB = number of moles of base

CB = 0.010 M

VB = 50.0 ml

CA = 0.50 M

VA = ?

NA = 1

NB = 1

Substituting values;

CAVANB = CBVBNA

VA =  0.010 ×  50.0 × 1/ 0.50 × 1

VA = 1 ml

Since the total volume of acid used is 1 ml and each drop contains 0.040 ml

The number of drops required is 1ml/0.040 ml = 25 drops
