Step-by-step explanation

JEE Main 2021 (Online) 16th March Evening Shift Chemistry - Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry Question 152 English Explanation 1

Millimoles of H3PO3 = M V = 1 50 = 50

For 1 millimole of H3PO3, we require 2 millimoles of NaOH.

For 50 millimole of H3PO3, we require (2 50) = 100 millimoles of NaOH.

Millimoles of NaOH = M V = 100

1 V = 100

V = 100 mL

JEE Main 2021 (Online) 16th March Evening Shift Chemistry - Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry Question 152 English Explanation 2

Millimoles of H3PO2 = M V = 2 100 = 200

For 1 millimole of H3PO2, we require 1 millimoles of NaOH.

For 200 millimoles of H3PO2, we require 200 millimoles of NaOH.

So, volume of NaOH = 200 mL
