Whats the molarity of an oxalic acid H2C2O4(aq) if a 10.00mL sample of that acid requires 25.80mL of 0.1573M NaOH to neutralize in titration?

    H2C2O4(aq) + 2 NaOH(aq) --> Na2C2O4(aq) + 2 H2O

    Moles NaOH used = 0.02580 L X 0.1573 mol/L = 4.058X10^-3 mol NaOH

    Moles oxalic acid = 4.058X10^-3 mol NaOH X (1 mol H2C2O4 / 2 mol NaOH = 2.029X10^-3 mol H2C2O4

    Molarity H2C2O4 = 2.029X10^-3 mol / 0.01000 L = 0.2029 mol/L H2C2O4
