The correct answer is: 7
Number of millimoles of base (i.e., Ca(OH)2) =N1V1=2×M1×V1=2×0.2×25=10
Number of millimoles of acid (i.e., HCl)=N2V2
=10×1=10
As, no. of millimoles of acid = no. of millimoles of base
Acid is completely neutralised by base forming a neutral solution.
pH of the resulting solution =7.
