Questions asked by users might not always be phrased in the clearest way.
The provided information is insufficient to calculate the value of 'x'. Here's why:
1. Unknown Acid Identity: We need to know the identity of the acid (e.g., HCl, H2SO4, etc.) to determine its molar mass and the number of acidic protons (H+) it contributes per molecule.
2. Molar Mass of 'Nacid': The term 'Nacid' is unclear. We need the actual chemical formula of the acid.
3. Titration Data: While the volumes of acid and base used in the titration are given, we need the concentration of either the acid or the base to proceed with calculations.
To solve for 'x', we would need the following:
The chemical formula of the acid (to determine its molar mass and the value of 'x').
The concentration of either the acid or the base solution.
Example:
Let's assume the acid is hydrochloric acid (HCl) and the base is sodium hydroxide (NaOH). We can then use the titration data and stoichiometry to calculate the concentration of the acid and then determine the value of 'x' (which would be 1 in this case, as HCl has one acidic proton).
