pls the answer is not in the option, u guys are calculating concentration instead of moles. if u solve well u will get 2.5×10*-4moles

The question needs to be corrected..
How many numbers of mole is different from the concentration...
How many numbers of mole of Na2CO3 is 1 From the equation, which correspond with option A.
and the concentration is 0.01mol/dm³ which correspond with option C

I think, nA/nB = CAVA/n.
where nA/nB is mole ratio of the reacting mole of HCl to Na2CO3 = 2/1. CA is concentration of HCl given as 0.05mol/dm3 . VA is volume of HCl given as 10cm3 = 0.01dm3. and n is the number of mole of Na2CO3 required to neutralize the HCl.
So, n = CAVA/(nA/nB) = 0.05 × 0.01/2 = 2.5×10^-4mol.
There number of mole of CaCO3 required to completely neutralize 10cm3 of 0.05mol/dm3 concentration of HCl is 2.5×10^-4 mol

CAVA/CBVB=NA/NB
We are looking for CB(concentration of base)
=CAVA*NB/VB*NA
=10*0.05/25*2=0.01 ans c.

Don't understand you guys? Correct solving but wrong option?
So this is how Jamb kept frustrating us abi?
