In this classic lab experiment, we are performing an acid-base titration. A titration is a lab technique often used to
determine the concentration of a solution, using another solution of known concentration. In an acid-base titration, one
of the reactants, in this case the acid HCl, is placed in a flask and titrated with the base NaOH, which is added to a buret.
A buret is a device used for the addition of a solution and measuring its volume. This is outlined in the video link that
goes along with this lab. In an acid-base titration, the two reactants are mixed until they have completely neutralized
each other. In order to know when we have reached the point of neutralization, we need something present in the
reaction to show us that the neutralization has occurred. That is why an indicator is added to the acid in the flask. An
indicator in this case would look one way in an acidic solution and look another way in basic solution. Phenolphthalein is
added to the acid in the flask before starting the titration. Phenolphthalein is clear in acidic solution and turns pink when
it is in a basic solution. The point when the indicator changes color is called the endpoint. Once the acid is neutralized,
the next tiny amount of NaOH that is added will turn the solution basic and thus the phenolphthalein will turn pink,
indicating that the titration is complete.

answer?
Calculations
Volume NaOH used in titration = (Volume NaOH final) – (Volume NaOH initial)
To find the Molarity of the NaOH:
Since the mole ratio of HCl and NaOH from the balanced equation is 1:1
the moles of HCl = moles of NaOH at the neutralization point.
Molarity = moles/Vol, so moles = Molarity x Volume
So, moles HCl = MHCl x VHCl and moles NaOH = MNaOH x VNaOH
Since the moles of HCl = moles of NaOH we can rewrite that as:
MHCl x VHCl = MNaOH x VNaOH
then rearranging the equation, we get:
Molarity NaOH =
