What is the molar mass of lauric acid (monoprotic) if 14.06 mL of 0.355 M KOH is needed to neutralize 1.000 g of the acid.
from the given data,
1 mol lauric acid = 1 mol KOH
no of mol of KOH reacted = M*V
= 0.355*14.06/1000
= 0.005 mol
no of mol of lauric acid = 0.005 mol
molarmass of lauric acid = w/n
= 1/0.005
= 200 g/mol
