First we have to find Ka1 and Ka2
pKa1 = - log Ka1 so Ka1 = 0.059
pKa2 = - log Ka2 so Ka2 = 6.46 x 10⁻⁵
Looking at the values of equilibrium constants we can see that the first one is really big compared to second one. so, the pH will be affected mainly by the first ionization of the acid.
Oxalic acid is H₂C₂O₄
H₂C₂O₄ ⇄ H⁺ + HC₂O₄⁻
0.0356 M 0 0
0.0356 - x x x
Ka1 =![\frac{[H^+][HC2O4^-]}{[H2C2O4]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BH%5E%2B%5D%5BHC2O4%5E-%5D%7D%7B%5BH2C2O4%5D%7D%20)
= x² / 0.0356 - x
x = 0.025 M
pH = - log [H⁺] = - log (0.025) = 1.6
pKa1 = - log Ka1 so Ka1 = 0.059
pKa2 = - log Ka2 so Ka2 = 6.46 x 10⁻⁵

Answer : The molecular weight of a substance is 157.3 g/mol
Explanation :
As we are given that 7 % by weight that means 7 grams of solute present in 100 grams of solution.
Mass of solute = 7 g
Mass of solution = 100 g
Mass of solvent = 100 - 7 = 93 g
Formula used :
where,
= change in freezing point
= temperature of pure water =
= temperature of solution =
= freezing point constant of water =
m = molality
Now put all the given values in this formula, we get
Therefore, the molecular weight of a substance is 157.3 g/mol
