determined by the amount of hydronium ion formed in water. Most often‚ it is expressed by pH‚ which equals the –log[H3O+]. The equilibrium constant for an acid is represented by Ka = [H3O+] [A-] / [HA]‚ where HA is the acid and A- is the dissociated acid. When comparing Ka’s‚ most commonly pKa is used‚ which is equal to –log Ka. In this experiment‚ the pKa of an unknown acid is determined by titrating it with NaOH and graphing its pH levels versus volume of NaOH titrated. The inflection point found
