When \mathrm{800 \mathrm{~mL}} of \mathrm{ 0.5 \mathrm\; {M}} nitric acid is heated in a beaker, its volume is reduced to half and \mathrm{ 11.5 \mathrm{~g}} of nitric acid is evaporated. The molarity of the remaining nitric acid solution is \mathrm{ x \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{M}. } (Nearest Integer)

Initially Solution is 0.5 m 800 ml \mathrm{HNO_{3}}

\mathrm{M\; HNO_{3}}=0.5\times 0.8\text{L = 0.4 mole}

\mathrm{W\; HNO_{3}}=0.4\times 63\text{ g/mole = 25.2 g }

On heating

Valume reduced to 400 ml and 11.5 g of \mathrm{HNO_{3}} is evaporated.

Wt.of \mathrm{HNO_{3}=25.2\; g-11.5\; g=13.7 \; g}

\mathrm{n\; HNO_{3}=\frac{13.7}{63\; g/mole}=0.21\; mole}

\mathrm{M\; HNO_{3}=\frac{0.217}{0.4\; L}=0.543 \; M}

                                        \mathrm{=54.3 \times 10^{-2}\; m}

Answer = 54
