The pH meter was mistakenly calibrated to be 1.0 pH unit higherthan the buffer.
a. Will this miscalibration result in a reported molarconcentration of the weak acid being too high, too low, orunaffected?
b. Is the determined pKa of the weak acid too high, too low, orunaffected by the miscalibration?

I have a few questions.

1. Suppose the thermometer is miscalibrated to read 0.3 oChigher than actual. Does this error in calibration result in themolar mass of the vapor in the flask being reported as too high ortoo low or as unaffected? Explain.

2. If the volume of the flask is assumed to be 125mL instead ofthe measured volume, would the calculated molar mass of the unknownliquid be too high or too low or as unaffected by this experimentalerror? Explain.

3. The pressure reading from the barometer is recorded higherthan it actually is. How does this affect the reported molar massof the liquid: too high, too low, or unaffected? Exlplain.

A solid acid is dissolved in 100 mL of deionized water, followed by 10 mL of ethanol. How does this added volume affect the reported molar mass of the weak acid, too high, too low, or unaffected? Explain.

The endpoint in the titration is "overshot" A. is the reported molar concentration of the hydrochloric acid solution too high or too low. B. As a result of this poor titration technique, is the reported number of moles of B4O5(OH)4^2 would be too high or too low?
