Late, but need help
« on: October 31, 2006, 04:13:45 AM »
I have done my research on how to try and solve this problem:

A student trtrated a solution containing 3.7066g of an unk. TRIPROTIC acid to the end point using 28.94 ml of 0.3021 M KOH solution.  What is the molar mass of the unk. acid? 

I think I am supposed to wrtie the 3 equations that come from a tripotic acid but I am lost from there? I could really use some guidance on how to solve this problem?

Thanks for any help,
Classic
