I was wondering if anyone knew who the first ever person was to receive a PhD in chemistry. I have been researching for hours and can't find the answer anywhere. If anyone knows, please let me know. Thank you.

Thanks for your help. However, I'll still a little stuck. I know that there are .0075 mols of NaOH and .318 mols of the 25 ml of solution were needed to neutralize it. The 25 ml of solution is 1/10 of the 250 ml that dissolved the 5 g. sample. That's pretty much all I know but I don't know how...

I need help finding the formula for the compound in this problem: You have been given a bottle of hydrated oxalic acid (contains x number of water molecules) with a half-torn label, and have been asked to determine the exact formula of this compound. Your best guess on the formula of this...

Thank you for your help.
