Briley · Answer 1

[NaOCl] = 0.1M (option c.)

Explanation:

We determine the reaction:

NaOCl (aq) + HCl (aq) →NaOH (aq) + Cl₂ (g)

Ratio is 1:1, so if I produce 0.01 moles of chlorine I used 0.01 mol of hypochlorite.

Our volume of solution by water (solvent) and NaOCl (solute) was 100 mL, so in order to determine molarity we divide moles by volume (L)

100 mL. 1L/1000mL = 0.1L

Molarity → 0.01 mol / 0.1L = 0.1M
