Explanation / Answer

Let the monoprotic acid be HA

moles of HA = mass/molar mass = 0.375g/245g/mol = 0.0015moles

[HA] = 0.0015moles/0.025L = 0.06M

pH = 3.28

pH = -log[H+]

[H+] = 10-3.28 = 5.25*10-4 M

HA + H2O <---> A- + H3O+

Ka = [A-][H3O+]/[HA]

Ka = (5.25*10-4)(5.25*10-4) / (0.06)

Ka = 4.5*10-6
