calculation of volume
« on: May 28, 2019, 10:19:01 AM »
Dear All,

I would like to ask for help with this challenge please.

Calculate volume of 20% NaOH which is needed to increase pH of NaCl from 2 to 7 with volume of NaCl 60 cubic meter.

Thank you for any help.

NaCl solutions don't have pH around 2. If the pH is 2, solution contains also something else. No way to answer the question without knowing what.
