After 0.552 g of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) is dissolved in 20 mL of water, methyl orange indicator is added on it and titrated with 0.1103 M KOH. Since the equivalence point is reached when 28.42 mL of base is consumed in the titration, which of the following is the molecular weight (g / mol) for Vitamin C? (Vitamin C is monoprotic acid)
