Glycine is an amino acid that can be abbreviated HGly.If 27.50 mL of 0.120 M NaOH neutralizes 0.248 g of HGly,what is the molar mass of glycine? HGly(aq)+ NaOH(aq)→ NaGly(aq)+ H₂O(l)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the molar mass of glycine, first calculate the moles of NaOH used: 0.02750 L * 0.120 mol/L = 0.0033 mol. Since the reaction is 1:1, moles of HGly = moles of NaOH = 0.0033 mol. Molar mass = mass/moles = 0.248 g / 0.0033 mol = 75.2 g/mol.
