Question: Solid NaOH is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air. A student places solid NaOH into a weighing dish and leaves the sample out

Solid NaOH is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air. A student places solid NaOH into a weighing dish and leaves the sample out for too long before weighing it. The student then dissolves the NaOH and uses the solution in a titration of an acid. The measured amount of the acid will therefore be
A. less than the actual amount of acid
B. greater than the actual amount of acid
C. equal to the actual amount of acid
D. the answer cannot be determined with the given information
An acid, HA, has an acid dissociation constant of 7**10-3. Which of the following is the expected pH of a solution that contains equal concentrations of HA and A-(the conjugate base of HA)?
A.1.8
B.2.2
C.3.7
D.4.9
An acid is titrated with a sodium hydroxide and a titration curve is developed. The half-equivalence point is found to be at a pH of approximately 4 and the equivalence point is found to be at a pH of approximately 8. What is the Ka of this acid?
A.10-3
B.910-5
C.1.210-8
D.910-10
If 0.025L of a 4M solution of sodium hydroxide is titrated with hydrochloric acid, how many millimoles of hydrochloric acid would be expected to be used in the reaction?
