Let

V_(HCl)mL->"Volume of HCl solutoin"

S_(HCl)M->"Strength of HCl solutoin"

V_(Al(OH)_3)mL-> "Volume of "Al(OH)_3" solutoin"

Amount HCl taken=V_(HCl)*S_(HCl)mmol

Amount of Al(OH)_3 taken

=V_(Al(OH)_3)xx0.22" "mmol

The reaction

Al(OH)_3 +3HCl->AlCl_3+3H_2O

This equation reveals that the reacting ratio of no. of moles is

Al(OH)_3):HCl= 1:3

So the residual amount of Al(OH)_3 is

=(V_(Al(OH)_3) xx 0.22- 1/3xxV_(HCl)*S_(HCl))mmol

The amount of H_2SO_4 required for neutralisation of ecess Al(OH)_3 is 5mL 0.38 M
equiv5xx0.38mmol
Equation of neutralisation of excess Al(OH)_3 by H_2SO_4

2Al(OH)_3 +3H_2SO_4->Al_2(SO_4)_3+6H_2O

This equation reveals that molar reacting ratio is

Al (OH)_3:H_2SO_4=2:3

So

V_(Al(OH)_3) xx 0.22- 1/3xxV_(HCl)*S_(HCl) =2/3xx5xx0.38

Using this equation we can find out S_(HCl) if the value of V_(HCl) of and V_(Al(OH)_3) are known.
