The question the student is trying to answer is: What is the concentration of nitric acid?

This is because the student is using potassium hydroxide (a strong base) to titrate nitric acid (a strong acid), and the primary purpose of a titration is often to determine the concentration of the unknown solution, which in this case is the nitric acid.
