For any acid pH always <7 !!

Without an 'acid Ka value('s)'-table figures of this diprotic weak, but relatively strong acid one can only guess for a good estimate:

  • If it were strong: 0.7
  • If it were as weak as acetic acid: 3.9
  • In reality it is between 1 and 2 so pH about 2.0 - 2.5 ?? seems the best guess

How many milliliters of a 0.270 M solution are needed to react completely with 3.245 g of oxalic acid?

The answer depends on which compound is in the 0.270M solution to react with oxalic acid, and sometimes also at what temperature and pH value this reaction is taking place.


Why 2N sulphuric acid is used in oxalic acid estimation?

This titration is based on the neutralization reaction between oxalic acid and sulfuric acid; a pH indicator is used.


Will H2C2O4 increase decrease or no change in the pH when added to water?

the pH will decrease slightly as oxalic acid is a weak acid.


Why would you add sulfuric acid to a mixture of oxalic acid and sodium oxalate?

This is an example of a buffer solution. if the sulfuric acid were added to a plain glass of water, it would have a massive change in pH. However, the buffer action of the oxalate-oxalic acid solution will decrease this change to something very minor (demonstrably to only hundredths or thousands, if the solution is made well, of the change it would have on pure water).
