A monoprotic organic acid that has a molar mass of 176.1 g/mol is synthesized. Unfortunately, the acid produced is not completely pure. In addition, it is not soluble in water. A chemist weighs a 1.8451-g sample of the impure acid and adds it to 100.0 mL of 0.1050 M NaOH. The acid is soluble in the NaOH solution and reacts to consume most of the NaOH. The amount of excess NaOH is determined by titration: It takes 3.28 mL of 0.0970 M HCl to neutralize the excess NaOH. What is the purity of the original acid, in percent?
