Question
Please answer parts a, b, and c and provide explanations

Transcribed Image Text:Potassium sorbate,KC H.O, (molar mass 150. g/mol) is commonly added to diet soft drinks as a preservative. A stock solution of KC,H,O,(aq) of known
concentration must be prepared. A student titrates 45.00 mL of the stock solution with 1.25 M HCl(ag) using both an indicator and a pH meter. The value of
K, for sorbic acid, HC H,O, is 1.7 x 10.
a.
Write the net-ionic equation for the reaction between KC H,O,(aq) and HCI(aq).
b.
A total of 29.95 mL of 1.25 M HCl(aq) is required to reach the equivalence point. Calculate the number of moles of H* added.
c. Write the equation by which sorbic acid dissolves in water.
d. Write the K, expression for sorbic acid dissolving in water.
