An 8.65-g sample of an unknown group 2A metal hydroxide is dissolved in 85.0 mL of water. An acid-base indicator is added and the resulting solution is titrated with 2.50 M HCl(aq) solution. The indicator changes color, signaling that the equivalence point has been reached after 56.9 mL of the hydrochloric acid solution has been added.
