Approximate Concentration of NaOH

C1V1 = C2V2
(6)(4.98) = C2 (250)
C2 = 0.11952

Average Concentration of NaOH From

endpoints:

Trial 1:
C1V1 = C2V2
C1 (12.92) = 0.1 x 5.13
C1 = 0.036

Trial 2:
C1V1 = C2V2
C1 x 5.88 = 0.1 x 5.69
C1 = 0.101

Average concentration
0.036+0.101/2 = 0.0685

Average Concentration of Unknown Acid

Trial 1:
0.0685 x 22.5 = 2/1 C (10.23)
C= 0.075

Trial 2
0.0685 x 19.81 = 2/1 C (5.12)
C= 0.132

Average
0.132+0.075/2 = 0.1035
