Explanation / Answer

Balanced chemical reaction:

                                               2HCl (aq) + Ba(OH)2 (aq)  --->   BaCl2 (aq) +  2H2O (l)

Beforerxn                        0.1 M * 0.025 L      0.1 M * 0.01 L

                                             = 0.0025 moles     0.001                      

Afterrxn                          0.0015moles               0                         0.001

                                              [H+] = 0.0015 moles / 0.025 L + 0.01 L

                                                       = 0.0428 M

                                           pH       = 1.36

b)         Being astrong acid strong base titration, pH at the equivalence point is7.

c)                                               2HCl (aq) + Ba(OH)2 (aq)   --->   BaCl2 (aq) +   2H2O (l)

Beforerxn                        0.1 M * 0.025 L      0.1 M * 0.015 L

                                             = 0.0025 moles     0.0015                      

Afterrxn                          0.001moles               0                         0.001

                                              [H+] = 0.001 moles / 0.025 L + 0.015 L

                                                       = 0.025 M

                                           pH       = 1.6
