100 mL of 6.00×10−2 M HCl,

100 mL of 5.00×10−2 M NaOH,

and plenty of distilled water.

You start to add HCl to a beaker of water when someone asks youa question. When you return to your dilution, you accidentally grabthe wrong cylinder and add some NaOH. Once you realize your error,you assess the situation. You have 82.0 mL of HCland 87.0 mL ofNaOH left in their original containers.

Assuming the final solution will be diluted to 1.00 L , how muchmore HCl should you add to achieve the desired pH?
