Sodium sulfate can be prepared by the reaction between sodium hydroxide solution and sodium hydrogensulfate ( $\mathrm{NaHSO}_{4}$ ) solution.

This is the equation for the reaction.

\mathrm{NaOH}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{NaHSO}_{4}(\mathrm{aq}) \rightarrow \mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{l})

Sodium hydrogensulfate solution is acidic.
A student adds $25.0 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$ of sodium hydroxide solution to a conical flask and adds two drops of indicator.

The student does a titration.

(a)

Name a piece of apparatus that should be used to add $25.0 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$ of sodium hydroxide solution to the conical flask.

[ 1 ]

(b)

Describe the method the student should use to find the accurate volume of sodium hydrogensulfate solution needed to neutralise the 25.0 cm3 of sodium hydroxide solution.
