Question

SHOW ALL WORK

A new weak acid, HG, has been synthesized. The a titration of 0.115g of HG requires 16.00 mL of 0.10 M KOH solution to reach the equivalence point.

(a) Write the dissociation equation for HG in water and its equilibrium expression (K_a).

(b) Write the net ionic equation for the titration reaction. 

(c) Calculate the molar mass of HG. 

Answer 1

$HG(aq) + H_2O(l) =>H_3O^+(aq) + G^-(aq)$

$HG(aq)-->H^+(aq) + A^-(aq)$
