Explanation / Answer

Calculation of concentration of acetic acid in vinegar solution

Trial 1,

moles NaOH used = molarity x volume

                              = 0.1 M x 41.8 ml = 4.18 mmol

moles CH3COOH present = 4.18 mmol

molarity of vinegar solution = 4.18 mmol/25 ml = 0.1672 M

mass CH3COOH acid present = 4.18 mmol x 60.05 g/mol/1000 = 0.251 g

mass% acetic acid = (0.251 g/25.13 g) x 100 = 0.992%

--

Trial 2,

moles NaOH used = molarity x volume

                              = 0.1 M x 42 ml = 4.2 mmol

moles CH3COOH present = 4.2 mmol

molarity of vinegar solution = 4.2 mmol/25 ml = 0.168 M

mass CH3COOH acid present = 4.2 mmol x 60.05 g/mol/1000 = 0.252 g

mass% acetic acid = (0.252 g/25.13 g) x 100 = 1.003%

--

Trial 3,

moles NaOH used = molarity x volume

                              = 0.1 M x 39.8 ml = 3.98 mmol

moles CH3COOH present = 3.98 mmol

molarity of vinegar solution = 3.98 mmol/25 ml = 0.1592 M

mass CH3COOH acid present = 3.98 mmol x 60.05 g/mol/1000 = 0.239 g

mass% acetic acid = (0.239 g/25.13 g) x 100 = 0.951%

--

average mas% CH3COOH in vinegar = 0.982%
