A student used 1.168g of an unknown weak acid and titrated it against 28.75 mL of 0.105M NaOH to reach the equivalence point. What is the molar mass of his unknown acid

The molar mass of the unknown acid is 386.8 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the weak acid = 1.168 grams

volume of NaOH = 28.75 mL = 0.02875 L

Molarity of NaOH = 0.105 M

Since we only know 1 equivalence point, we suppose the acid is monoprotic

Step 2: Calculate moles NaOH

Moles NaOH = molarity NaOH * volume NaOH

Moles NaOH = 0.105 M * 0.02875 L

Moles NaOH = 0.00302 moles

We need 0.00302 moles of weak acid to neutralize the NaOH

Step 3: Calculate molar mass of weak acid

Molar mass = mass / moles

Molar mass = 1.168 grams / 0.00302 moles

Molar mass = 386.8 g/mol

The molar mass of the unknown acid is 386.8 g/mol
