How to Calculate Neutralization Volume
Formula
V_b = (C_a × V_a) / C_b
Where:
This applies to monoprotic 1:1 neutralization. For polyprotic acids, multiply by the number of acidic protons.
Example Calculation
Neutralize 50 mL of 0.1 M HCl with 0.1 M NaOH.
- 01V_b = (C_a × V_a) / C_b
- 02V_b = (0.1 × 50) / 0.1
- 03V_b = 5 / 0.1
- 04V_b = 50 mL
