Explanation / Answer

Molar mass of Vitamin C = 176 g/mol

Daily requirement of Vitamin C = 70.90 mg

Moles of Vitamin C in sweet lime = 2.85*10^-4 mol

Mass of Vitamin C in sweet lime = moles x molecular weight

= 2.85*10^-4 mol x 176 g/mol

= 0.05016 g x 1000mg/g

= 50.2 mg

Daily requirement of Vitamin C (70.90 mg) > Mass of Vitamin C in sweet lime (50.2 mg)

Vitamin C in a Sweet lime does not meet the daily requirement

Mass of Vitamin C in sweet lime = 0.0502 g
