4.119 You are given a soluble compound of an unknown molecular formula. (a) Describe three tests that would show that the compound is an acid. (b) Once you have established that the compound is an acid, describe how you would determine its molar mass using an NaOHsolution of known concentration. (Assume the acid ismonoprotic.) (c) How would you find out whether theacid is weak or strong? You are provided with a sampleof NaCl and an apparatus like that shown in Figure 4.1for comparison.
