The correct answer is: 10.0 mL

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between HBr and Ba(OH)2 is:

2HBr+Ba(OH)2  BaBr2+2H2O

From this equation, we can see that 2 moles of HBr react with 1 mole of Ba(OH)2.

Equal equivalents will react. 

Number of equivalents = Normality ×Volume

So,

N1V1=N2V20.02×V1=0.02×10V1=10 ml
