Moles of HCl initially present = M x V ( in L)
= ( 0.0981) x ( 25/1000) = 0.0024525
Moles of HCl titrated with NaOH = NaOH moles used ( since HCl and NaOH react in 1:1 ratio)
= M x V ( NaoH) = 0.104 x ( 5.83/1000) = 0.0006063
Moles of HCl used in titrating antacid = Initial HCl moles - HCl moles used in titratiing NaOH
= 0.0024525 - 0.0006063 = 0.0018462
Moles of antacid = Moles of HCl used = 0.0018462
0.204 g sample of ant acid has 0.0018462 moles
Moles of base per gram = ( 0.0018462 /0.204) = 0.00905 moles / g
