Answer

$$ \boxed{0.02125 M H^+}$$

Work Step by Step

Since we know the molality of both solutions and the fact that $$H^{+} + OH^{-} \rightarrow H_2O$$ We can simply calculate which is in excess, as the limiting reagent will determine how much water is made. Thus we find the moles in the solution for each, For $HCL_{aq}$ $$\frac{0.25}{1} mol/L * \frac{75}{1000} L = 0.01875 mol/L $$ And for barium hydroxide, $$\frac{0.055}{1} mol/L * \frac{225}{1000} L = 0.012375 mol/L $$ Subtracting gives, 0.006375 moles. of excess $H^+$ and the total volume is 300 mL. $$0.006375 moles / 0.3 L = 0.02125 $$ or$$ \boxed{0.02125 M H^+}$$
