- Ascorbic acid, H2C6H6O6, is a diprotic acid usually known as vitamin C. For this acid, pKa1 is 4.10 and pKa2 is 11.79. When 125 mL of a solution of ascorbic acid was evaporated to dryness, the residue of pure ascorbic acid had a mass of 3.64 g. Your answer is correct. Calculate the molar concentration of ascorbic acid in the solution before it was evaporated. 0.164 Hint Your answer is partially correct.
