3.134 grams of potassium sorbate (KCH3(CH,)4CO2 ) is fully dissolved in 100.00 mL of water, which is carefully transferred to a conical flask. Then 100.00 mL of 0.240 M HNO, is added dropwise to this solution from a burette. Given: K, (sorbic acid) = 1.7 x 10-5. Showing all your calculations and reasoning, determine the pH of the solution that results after the addition of all the acid mentioned above.
