Minnie Mouse did the Ka by Titrimetry experiment last week.  Minnie used 20.00 mL of 0.050 M sodium hydroxide to reach the equivalence point when she titrated 0.3062 g of an unknown monoprotic acid. The pH at the equivalence point of the titration was 8.36, and the pH at the halfway point of the titration was 4.22.  What is the Ka of the acid?
