A chemist needs to determine the concentration of a solution of nitric acid, HNO3 . She puts 875 mL of the acid in a flask along with a few drops of indicator. She then slowly adds 0.800 M Ba(OH)2 to the flask until the solution turns pink, indicating the equivalence point of the titration. She notes that 295 mL of Ba(OH)2 was needed to reach the equivalence point.

How many moles of HNO3 are present if 0.236 mol of Ba(OH)2 was needed to neutralize the acid solution?
