Answer

74.0 mL of that $KOH$ solution

Work Step by Step

1. Write and balance the equation for the reaction between $KOH$ and $HCl$: $KOH(aq) + HCl(aq) --\gt KCl(aq) + H_2O(l)$ - The equation is balanced. 2. Identify the conversion factors. - The concentration of that $KOH$ solution is equal to 0.215 mole per liter. $\frac{0.215 \space mole \space KOH}{1 \space L \space (soln. \space KOH)}$ and $\frac{1 \space L \space (soln. \space KOH)}{0.215 \space mole \space KOH}$ - The concentration of that $HCl$ solution is equal to 3.18 moles per liter. $\frac{3.18 \space moles \space HCl}{1 \space L \space (soln. \space HCl)}$ and $\frac{1 \space L \space (soln. \space HCl)}{3.18 \space moles \space HCl}$ - According to the balanced equation, each mole of $HCl$ reacts with one mole of $KOH$: $\frac{1 \space mole \space HCl}{1 \space mole \space KOH}$ and $\frac{1 \space mole \space KOH}{1 \space mole \space HCl}$ 3. Calculate the required volume: $5.00 \space mL \space (Soln. \space HCl) \times \frac{3.18 \space moles \space HCl}{1 \space L \space (soln. \space HCl)} \times \frac{1 \space mole \space KOH}{1 \space mole \space HCl} \times \frac{1 \space L \space (soln. \space KOH)}{0.215 \space mole \space KOH}= 74.0 \space mL \space (Soln. \space KOH)$
