2. For each reaction you perform, you will mix together 50.0 mL of 2.00 M acid and 2.00 M base. What are the resulting concentrations of the reactants upon mixing?
3. How many moles of each reactant are present in each trial?
4. What is the total volume of the solutions upon mixing? Assuming a density of 1.03 g/mL for the solution, find the total mass of each reaction mixture.
