Question

1. calculate the molar mass of the triprotic acid for two trials that were used.

trial 1 5.87
trial 2 6.31

1. calculate the average molar mass of the triprotic acid.
2. calculate molar masses of the possible known acids and show the calculations for each molar mass

Explanation:

Step1: Recall average formula

The formula for the average of two numbers $a$ and $b$ is $\text{Average}=\frac{a + b}{2}$.

Step2: Identify values

Here, $a = 5.87$ and $b=6.31$.

Step3: Calculate average

$\text{Average}=\frac{5.87+6.31}{2}=\frac{12.18}{2}=6.09$

Answer:

$6.09$
