(a) The balanced reaction is : HI + LiOH ----> LiI + H2O

(b) Number of moles of LiOH , n = Molarity x volume in L

                                              = 0.250 M x 21.78 mLx 10-3 L/mL

                                              = 0.054 moles

(c) According to the balanced reaction ,

1 mole of LiOH reacts with 1 mole of HI

0.0054 moles of LiOH reacts with 0.0054 moles of HI

(d) The concentration of HI = number of moles of HI / volume of solution in L

                                      = 0.0054 mol / (34.20 mL x10-3 L/mL)

                                      = 1.592 M
