Given, Mass of Vinegar=
10.03gMolarity of Ba(OH)2=0.0176M
Volume of vinegar solution used=25ml
Volume of Ba(OH)2 used=34.30ml
We know, at equivalence, no. of gram equivalents of vinegar solution=No. of gram equivalents of Ba(OH)2⟶(1)
Now,
Molarity of Ba(OH)2=0.0176M
⇒ Normality of Ba(OH)2=0.0176×nfactor
=0.0176×2
=0.0352N
So, from (1) N1V1=N2V2
Vinegarsol. Ba(OH)2
⇒N1=N2V2V1=0.0352×34.3025
=0.0482N
∴ The normality of acetic acid in the vinegar solution is 0.0482N
Molarity of acetic acid=0.0482nfactor [∵n=1]
=0.04821M
This means that
0.0482 moles of acetic acid is present in 1000ml solution
⇒ No. of moles of acetic acid in 100ml solution is=0.0482×1001000
=0.00482 moles
Now, for % calculation , first let us calculate the mass
We know 1 mole acetic acid=60g
⇒0.00482 mole acetic acid=0.00482×60
=0.2892g
Now, for % calculation
∴ Mass % of acetic acid in vinegar solution=MassofAcidMassofVinegar×100
=0.2892g10.03g×100
=2.88%
