A 0.682 g sample of a weak monoprotic acid, HA was dissolved in sufficient water to make 50.0 mL of solution and was titrated with a 0.135 molar NaOH solution. After the addition of 10.6 milliliters of base, a pH of 5.65 was recorded. The equivalence point was reached after the addition of 27.4 milliliters of the 0.135 molar NaOH.
a. Calculate the number of moles of acid in the original sample.
b. Calculate the molar mass of the acid HA.
c. Calculate the [H3O+] at pH = 5.65
d. Calculate the number of moles of unreacted HA remaining in solution when the pH was 5.65.
e. Calculate the value of the ionization constant, Ka, of the acid HA.
f. Calculate the value of the ionization constant, Kb, and explain how you would use it to determine the pH of a solution of a known mass of the sodium salt (Na)(A) dissolved in a known volume of water.
