    Answer ALL questions.

    1. (a) A student was provided with a standard solution of aqueous sodium hydroxide containing
    X grams of NaOH in 250 cm3 of solution. In order to determine the mass of sodium hydroxide
    used, he titrated 25 cm3 portions of the solution using 0.025 mol dm–3 sulphuric acid in the
    burette and a suitable indicator.
