85 cm^3 of 0.05 mol/dm^3 sulfuric acid is used to neutralise 15 cm^3 of sodium hydroxide of an unknown concentration. Given that the chemical formula of the reaction is 2NaOH + H2SO4 => NA2SO4 + 2H2O, find the concentration of the sodium hydroxide.


CO(g) + 2H2(g) ⇌ CH3OH(g). A pressure of 100 atmospheres is used instead of atmospheric pressure. The higher pressure gives a greater yield of methanol and an increased rate of reaction. Explain why.
