What is the concentration of the barium hydroxide solution if 50.0 mL of a 0.425 M HNO3 solution is required to neutralize a 36.8 mL sample?

The molarity of Barium Hydroxide is 0.289 M.

Explanation:

We have to write the balanced equation as,

Ba(OH)₂ + 2 HNO₃ → Ba(NO₃)₂ + 2 H₂O

We need 2 moles of nitric acid to react with a mole of Barium hydroxide, so we can write the law of volumetric analysis as,

V1M1 = 2 V2M2

Here V1 and M1 are the volume and molarity of nitric acid

V2 and M2 are the volume and molarity of Barium hydroxide.

So the molarity of Ba(OH)₂, can be found as,

      = 0.289 M

the seeing the electronic configuration we can say that the element is fluorine.

fluorine is the most electronegative element in the periodic table.

but by only seeing the configuration we cannot say about its reactivity because we don't know if its configuration after excitation or by addition of electrons.

but if not then, it is the lightest halogen and exists as a highly toxic pale yellow diatomic gas at standard conditions. as the most electronegative element, it is extremely reactive: almost all other elements, including some noble gases, form compounds with fluorine.
