Answer: The number of moles of sodium hydroxide required to reach the endpoint is 0.00128

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

[tex]\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution in ml}}[/tex]

Molarity of [tex]NaOH[/tex] solution = 0.100 M

Volume of [tex]NaOH[/tex] solution = 12.8 mL

Putting values in equation, we get:

[tex]0.100M=\frac{\text{Moles of}NaOH\times 1000}{12.8ml}\\\\\text{Moles of }NaOH=\frac{0.100mol/L\times 12.8}{1000}=0.00128mol[/tex]

Thus the number of moles of sodium hydroxide required to reach the endpoint is 0.00128
