Solution

The correct option is C c
pH of 75 mL M5HCl+25 mL M5NaOH will be equal to 1.

Total volume =75mL+25mL=100mL

Number of mmol of HCl =75 mL×M5=15 mmol

Number of mmol of NaOH =25mL×M5=5 mmol

5 mmol of NaOH will neutralise 5 mmol of HCl.

15−5=10 mmol of HCl will remain

[H+]=[HCl]=10 mmol100 mL=0.1 M

pH=log [H+]

pH=log 0.1pH=1
Hence, option (c) is correct.
