Does anyone know how to get the answers to these questions.
Both of the answers are C but can anyone explain how to get the answer?
This is a weak acid question. Glycolic acid reacts in a 1:1 ratio with NaOH. Use the titration data to find the mol of NaOH and hence mol glycolic acid.
To find the pH you must use the weak acid dissociation equation:
ka = [H+][A-]/[HA]
Don't forget that [H+] =[A-] and that you can approximate the dissociated acid concentration to that of the undissociated acid.
