Chapter 4, Problem 32QAP

A student tries to determine experimentally the molar mass of aspirin (HAsp). She takes 1.00 g of aspirin, dissolves it in water, and neutralizes it with 17.6 mL of 0.315 M KOH. The equation for the reaction is

$\text{HAsp}\left(\text{a}q\right)+{\text{OH}}^{-}\left(aq\right)\to {\text{Asp}}^{-}\left(aq\right)+{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}$What is the molar mass of aspirin?
