Question

An unknown student takes an unknown mass of an unknown weak acid, dissolves it in an unknown amount. I of water, and titrates it with a strong base of unknown concentration. When the student has added 8.36 mL of base (initial buret V=0.00 mL), using a pH meter the student measures the pH of the solution and finds it to be 2.08. The student continues the titration until the equivalence point is reached for removal of one proton. At this time the students buret reads 34.88 ml. Determine the dissociation constant, Ka, of the acid? [Must show your work or reasoning!!]
