The molar mass of an organic acid was determined by the study of its barium salt. 4.290 g of salt was quantitatively converted to free acid by the reaction with 21.64 mL of 0.477 *M* H2SO4. The barium salt was found to have two mole of water of hydration per Ba2+ ion and the acid is monobasic. What is the molar mass of anhydrous acid?
