Question 32

A standard aqueous solution of chloroacetic acid (CH2ClCOOH\text{CH}_2\text{ClCOOH}CH2​ClCOOH) is prepared by dissolving 1180 mg1180\text{ mg}1180 mg of the pure solid in distilled water and diluting to a total volume of exactly 150 cm3150\text{ cm}^3150 cm3. At 298 K298\text{ K}298 K, the pH\text{pH}pH of this solution is measured to be 2.032.032.03.

Calculate the value of KaK_{\text{a}}Ka​ for chloroacetic acid at this temperature. Give your answer to three significant figures. State the units of KaK_{\text{a}}Ka​.
