Your friend at Podunk U. urgently emails asking if you remember any acid-base chemistry. His problem is that for his final organic lab problem he needs to report the pKa of his acid. He did the pH titration, but only wrote down the following data for the titratant volumes: V = 14.27 mL; pH = 4.73. Vequivalence point = 22.43 mL. What is the pKa of the unknown acid?
