When a sample of oxalic acid (H2C2O4), which is a diprotic acid (both H-atoms are acidic), is titrated with 0.250 M potassium hydroxide solution, 24.09 mL of the potassium hydroxide solution are required to neutralize the acid. How many grams of oxalic acid where present in the sample?
2 KOH(aq) + H2C2O4(s) → K2C2O4(aq) + 2 H2O(l)
Your answer should have 3 significant figures.

He carefully weighs out 214.mg of oxalic acid H2C2O4 , a diprotic acid that can be purchased inexpensively in high purity, and dissolves it in 250.mL of distilled water. The student then titrates the oxalic acid solution with his sodium hydroxide solution. When the titration reaches the equivalence point, the student finds he has used 91.8mL of sodium hydroxide solution. Calculate the molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.arrow_forward
