    yes,

    H2SO4 + 2NaOH => Na2SO4 + 2H2O

    First write and balance the equation:

    H2SO4 + 2NaOH --> Na2SO4 + 2H2O

    In order to neutralize NaOH you need an equal number moles of H2SO4 to NaOH and the mole ratio of NaOH to H2SO4 from the balanced equation is 2 to 1:

    10g(1mol/40g NaOH)(1mol H2SO4/2mol NaOH)(98.09g H2SO4/1mol) = 12.3g H2SO4

    WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT MIX CONCENTRATED SULFURIC ACID WITH CONCENTRATED SODIUM HYDROXIDE. iT WILL BLOW OUT IN YOUR FACE DUE TO THE HIGH AMOUNT OF HEAT ENERGY GENERATED WHEN THE H+ and OH- ions combine to make steam.
