Expert Solution
Step 1

In a weak acid-strong base titration curve, the concentration of acid at the midpoint is equal to the concentration of its conjugate base. Hence the pH = pKa. This point is known as the half-neutralization point.

Trial-1

pH at midpoint of titration = 3.01

Therefore pKa = 3.01

Trial-2

pH at midpoint of titration = 3.22

Therefore pKa = 3.22
