We are asked to calculate the mass (in grams) of each acid necessary to completely react with and neutralize 4.70 g of the base.
HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) → H2O(l) + NaCl(aq)
Molar mass HCl = 36.46 g/mol
Molar mass NaOH = 40.00 g/mol
For each of the following acid-base reactions, calculate the mass (in grams) of each acid necessary to completely react with and neutralize 4.70 g of the base.
HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) → H2O(l) + NaCl(aq)
