A 0.25-mol sample of a weak acid with an unknown pKa is combined with 10.0 mL of 3.00 M KOH, and the resulting solution is diluted to 1.500 L. The measured pH of the solution is 3.85. What is the pKa of the weak acid?
Calculate the $K_{\mathrm{a}}$ of a weak acid if a $0.19 M$ aqueous solution of the acid has a pH of 4.52 at $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$.
