Does unit matter?
As long as volume units are consistent (e.g., both mL or both L), the calculation works.

Understanding the neutralization point
Reaction Stoichiometry
This calculation assumes a 1:1 mole ratio (e.g., HCl + NaOH). At the equivalence point, Moles Acid = Moles Base.
0.1 M x 25 mL = 0.1250 M x 20 mL
Concentration Comparison
The base is more concentrated than the acid, so a smaller volume of base is needed to neutralize the acid.
Experimental Context
In a lab titration, you would use an indicator (like phenolphthalein) that changes color exactly when the neutralization is complete to measure these volumes accurately.
How to Use
Step-by-step instructions
- 1Enter the volume of Acid (Va).
- 2Enter the concentration of Acid (Ca).
- 3Enter the volume of Base (Vb).
- 4The calculator will compute the unknown concentration of the Base (Cb).
Titration Formula
At the equivalence point, the moles of acid equal the moles of base. M is molarity (concentration) and V is volume.

Inputs:
Vol Acid:25 mL
Conc Acid:0.1 M
Vol Base:20 mL
Steps:
- 1.MaVa = 0.1 x 25 = 2.5
- 2.Mb = 2.5 / 20 = 0.125 M
Result:
0.125 M
