Question- Nitric acid is used to etch copper during printmaking. To test the strength of a nitric acid solution, 5.00 mL of a commercial preparation of this acid is dissolved in water and diluted to 100.00 mL in a volumetric flask. A 25.00 mL portion of this diluted acid is titrated with 0.5365 M NaOH and gives and endpoint at 36.87 mL.
a. What is the concentration of the nitric acid in the original commercial preparation?
b. What is the expected pH of the diluted nitric acid sample solution at the beginning of the titration?
c. What is the expected pH during this titration after 10.00 mL, 25.00 mL, and 40.00 mL of titrant have been added?
Elucidate the each and every step in detail for helping me to understand the answer of the above problem
