A student is asked to determine the value of K, for nitrous acid by titration with sodium hydroxide. The student begins titrating a 45.6 mL sample of a 0.345 M aqueous solution of nitrous acid with a 0.378 M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, but runs out of standardized base before reaching the equivalence point. The student's last observation is that when 15.5 milliliters of sodium hydroxide have been added, the pH is 3.088. What is K, for nitrous acid based on the student's data? a.
