Let's do the stoich in steps: Number Number D How many moles of base? How many moles of acid? What is the limiting reactant? Number How many moles of the excess reagent after reaction? Number What is the concentration of the excess reagent after reaction? Number What is the concentration of the pH active product after reaction?

Explanation / Answer

moles of acid = 0.42 x 33 / 1000 = 0.01386

moles of base = 0.6 x 48 / 1000 = 0.0288

1 mole acid reacts with 1 mole base

limiting reagent = acid = HCl

exess reagent = 0.0288 - 0.01386 = 0.01494

exess reagent left = 0.01494

exess reagent left = [0.01494] / 0.081 = 0.18 M

moles of CH3NH3+  = 0.01386 / 0.081 = 0.17 M
