How many moles of acetic acid are present in 50 mL of 5% vinegar solution? (HC2H3O2 = 60 g/mole, density = 1 g/mL)
Added by Christopher A.
Step 1
Since the density of the vinegar solution is given as 1 g/mL, the mass of 50 mL of the solution is: \[ \text{Mass of solution} = \text{Volume} \times \text{Density} = 50 \, \text{mL} \times 1 \, \text{g/mL} = 50 \, \text{g} \] Show more…

Calculation 1 Moles Acetic Acid in 50.0 mL Vinegar (Data Table 2) (Vinegar is 5% acetic acid, meaning there are 5 g acetic acid per 100 g vinegar. If the density of vinegar is 0.96 g/mL, use dimensional analysis to calculate the moles of acetic acid in 50.0 mL of vinegar.)
Krishna G.
Vinegar contains $5.00 \%$ acetic acid by mass and has a density of $1.01 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mL}$. What mass (in grams) of acetic acid is present in $5.00 \mathrm{~L}$ of vinegar?
