4.5 Exercise 14

Avg difficulty 2.5

A sample of solid calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2, is allowed to stand in water until a saturated solution is formed. A titration of 75.00 mL of this solution with 5.00 ×\times 10−2 M HCl requires 36.6 mL of the acid to reach the end point.
Ca(OH)2(aq)+2HCl(aq)⟶CaCl2(aq)+2H2O(l)\text{Ca} \left(\text{OH}\right)_{2} \left(a q\right) + 2 \text{HCl} \left(a q\right) \rightarrow \text{CaCl}_{2} \left(a q\right) + 2 \text{H}_{2} \text{O} \left(l\right)

What is the molarity?
