1. Compare your pKa, Ka and molar mass from your experiment to the expected values for KHP. How well do they compare? What might account for the differences? 2. Based on your results in Part 1, is the method used reliable in determining pKa, Ka and molar mass of a weak acid? Explain. 3. Discuss your thinking on how you determined the identity of your unknown. Were there two (or more) acids that were difficult for you to distinguish between? If so, how did you makeyour final decision?
