Problem
A student mixes equal volumes of 0.10 M H₂SO₄(aq) and 0.10 M KOH(aq). Which of the following driving forces most strongly favors completion of the reaction?
(a) Formation of H₂(g), which escapes from the mixture
(b) Precipitation of K₂SO₄(s) from the mixture
(c) Formation of H₂O(l), a stable molecular compound
(d) Electron transfer from K⁺ to SO₄²⁻
