Question

A sample of 0.1687 g of an unknown monoprotic acid was
dissolved in 25.0 mL of water and titrated with 0.1150 M
NaOH. The acid required 15.5 mL of base to reach the
equivalence point. (a) What is the molar mass of the acid?
(b) After 7.25 mL of base had been added in the titration,
the pH was found to be 2.85. What is the Ka for the unknown
acid?
