To solve this problem, we first need to address the missing titration data. Since no experimental readings are provided for the titration, we will assume a typical average volume of solution A used.

Assumption: We will assume the average volume of solution A (H2_2SO4_4) used in the titration (VAV_A) is \textbf{20.00 cm^3}.

i) Concentration of B in mol/dm3^3

Step 1: Calculate the molar mass of Sodium hydroxide (NaOH).
The relative atomic masses are H=1.00, O=16.0, Na=23.0.

Molar mass of NaOH=23.0+16.0+1.00=40.0 g/mol\text{Molar mass of NaOH} = 23.0 + 16.0 + 1.00 = 40.0 \text{ g/mol}

Step 2: Calculate the number of moles of NaOH in 1 g.

Moles of NaOH=MassMolar mass=1.00 g40.0 g/mol=0.0250 mol\text{Moles of NaOH} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Molar mass}} = \frac{1.00 \text{ g}}{40.0 \text{ g/mol}} = 0.0250 \text{ mol}

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of solution B (NaOH) in mol/dm3^3.
The volume of solution B is 250 cm3^3, which is 0.250 dm3^3.

Concentration of B(CB)=Moles of NaOHVolume of solution B=0.0250 mol0.250 dm3=0.100 mol/dm3\text{Concentration of B} (C_B) = \frac{\text{Moles of NaOH}}{\text{Volume of solution B}} = \frac{0.0250 \text{ mol}}{0.250 \text{ dm}^3} = \boxed{\text{0.100 mol/dm}^3}

ii) Concentration of A in mol/dm3^3

Step 4: Write the balanced chemical equation and determine the mole ratio.
The balanced equation is:

H2SO4(aq)+2NaOH (aq)⟶Na2SO4(aq)+2H2O (l)\text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 \text{(aq)} + 2\text{NaOH (aq)} \longrightarrow \text{Na}_2\text{SO}_4 \text{(aq)} + 2\text{H}_2\text{O (l)}

From the equation, 1 mole of H2_2SO4_4 reacts with 2 moles of NaOH. So, nA=1n_A = 1 and nB=2n_B = 2.

Step 5: Use the titration formula to calculate the concentration of A (H2_2SO4_4).
Given:
CB=0.100 mol/dm3C_B = 0.100 \text{ mol/dm}^3 (from part i)
VB=25 cm3=0.025 dm3V_B = 25 \text{ cm}^3 = 0.025 \text{ dm}^3
VA=20.00 cm3=0.02000 dm3V_A = 20.00 \text{ cm}^3 = 0.02000 \text{ dm}^3 (assumed average volume)
The titration formula is:

CAVAnA=CBVBnB\frac{C_A V_A}{n_A} = \frac{C_B V_B}{n_B}

Rearranging to solve for CAC_A:

CA=CBVBnAVAnB=(0.100 mol/dm3)×(0.025 dm3)×1(0.02000 dm3)×2C_A = \frac{C_B V_B n_A}{V_A n_B} = \frac{(0.100 \text{ mol/dm}^3) \times (0.025 \text{ dm}^3) \times 1}{(0.02000 \text{ dm}^3) \times 2} CA=0.00250.04000=0.0625 mol/dm3C_A = \frac{0.0025}{0.04000} = \boxed{\text{0.0625 mol/dm}^3}

iii) Number of hydrogen ions in 1.0 dm3^3 of A

Step 6: Calculate the moles of H2_2SO4_4 in 1.0 dm3^3 of solution A.
The concentration of A (CAC_A) is 0.0625 mol/dm3^3.

Moles of H2SO4=Concentration×Volume=0.0625 mol/dm3×1.0 dm3=0.0625 mol\text{Moles of H}_2\text{SO}_4 = \text{Concentration} \times \text{Volume} = 0.0625 \text{ mol/dm}^3 \times 1.0 \text{ dm}^3 = 0.0625 \text{ mol}

Step 7: Determine the moles of hydrogen ions (H+^+) produced.
Sulfuric acid (H2_2SO4_4) is a strong acid and dissociates completely in water:

H2SO4(aq)⟶2H+(aq)+SO42−(aq)\text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 \text{(aq)} \longrightarrow 2\text{H}^+ \text{(aq)} + \text{SO}_4^{2-} \text{(aq)}

Each mole of H2_2SO4_4 produces 2 moles of H+^+ ions.
