JEE Main levelSingle correct optionDifficulty 2 of 3mc138

200 mL of 0.5 M HCl is mixed with 300 mL of 0.2 M HCl (volumes additive). The molarity of the mixture is

  1. A
  2. B
  3. C
  4. D

Answer: A

Moles = 0.200 x 0.5 + 0.300 x 0.2 = 0.100 + 0.060 = 0.160 mol in 0.500 L. Molarity = 0.32 M. The simple mean 0.35 ignores the different volumes.
