NO The purpose of this experiment was to determine the Ka and Pka and molar mass of a weak acid. To find the acid dissociation constant, Ka, we used the equation (1). Our experiment was accomplished by preparing and standardize 0.1 molarity NaOH and graphing a titration curve. Through the derivatives of this curve, it was found that the volume at equivalence= 23.27 ml, PH at equivalence point = PKa = 4.025 and Ka=9.4 x 10-5. By use of the molarity of NaOH=0.0993 M
and the volume at the equivalence point, the molar mass of unknown acid was calculated to be 174.5 g/mol. −¿ ( aq ) +¿ ( aq )+ A ¿ ¿ HA ( aq ) +H 2 O ( l ) → H 3 O

Introduction The objective of this experiment is to determine the molar mass, pKa, and Ka of a weak acid based on a titration curve. An acid is a compound that can donate a proton, and the strength of an acid can be determined by the compound’s ability to donate a proton. The stronger the acid, the farther the equilibrium of reaction (1). The acid dissociation constant, Ka, is the acidity constant and equals the molar concentration of hydronium times the molar concentration of the conjugate base divided by the molar concentration of the weak acid according to equation (2). Taking the negative antilog of the pKa to the tenth power, results in the Ka of the unknown weak acid (3). The strength of an acid is determined by the pH or negative log of the hydronium ion concentration according to equation (4) and (5). −¿ ¿ A ¿ +¿ H 3 O¿ ¿ ¿ k a=¿

A titration curve is a graphical representation of the pH of a solution during a titration. At the equivalence point of the titration, the moles of the weak acid and the base added are equal and it corresponds with a color change of the indicator. At half of the equivalence point, the pH is equivalent to the pKa because the molar concentration of the resulting conjugate base is equal to the molar concentration of the acid. By multiplying the volume of NaOH used to titrate to
equivalence by the molarity of NaOH we found the moles of NaOH equal 2.31. At equivalenced point, the moles of acid equal the moles of base. By dividing the mass of the unknown acid by this number we found the molar mass of acid equal 174.5 g/mole.
Method In the first step of this experiment, the needed mass of NaOH was calculated on a lowprecision balance and dissolve it in a 250-mL beaker with DI water. It was poured the dissolved NaOH into a 500-mL polyethylene bottle and dilute with more DI water to the final volume. It was used a plastic bottle because hydroxide solutions react with glass on prolonged contact, etching the glass and changing the [OH –] value. It was weighed out 204.233 g/mol the of KHP on the analytical balance and record the mass to the full available precision. It was dissolved the KHP sample in an Erlenmeyer flask with about 50 mL of deionized water. Then added 2 drops of phenolphthalein indicator and titrate with our NaOH solution to a pale pink endpoint. It was Set up the buret for a pH meter titration while Keeping the solution gently stirred with the magnetic stirrer. It was added enough base solution from the buret to produce a change of 0.2 units in the pH meter reading. It was repeated the addition of base solution until it well past the equivalence point. At the very end of your titration, the pH values will change only slightly with the addition of 2 mL or more of base solution. Finally, we used the excel to graph the titration curve to find the Ka and Pka. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xc5nJboYXp3eQ4CggR7AJW3lssUkleNH/view?ts=5e7a9984 (date of access 11/05/2020)
