A. Calculate the mass of NaOH needed to prepare 100ml of 0.20 molar
solution.
mols NaOH needed = M x L = 0.20 x 0.1 = 0.020 mols.
grams = mols x molar mass = 0.020 x approx 40 = about 0.80 grams. I'm estimating so you must reconfirm all of these numbers.


B. Calculate the mass of solid KHP needed to react completely with 25ml of a 0.20m NaOH solution.
You MUST mean 0.20 M and not m. M stands for molarity; m stands for molality. NaOH + KHP ==> NaKP + H2O
mols NaOH = M x L = 0.20 x 0.025 = 0.005
The equation tells you that 1 mol NaOH reacts with 1 mol KHP; therefore, mols KHP reacted must be 0.005.
Then grams KHP = mols KHP x molar mass KHP = ?


C. Calculate the molar amount of solid KHP used to neutralize the NaOH solution.
I did that in part B above
