The acidic substance in vinegar is acetic acid `(CH_(3)COOH)`. When `6.0 g` of a certain vinegar was titrated with `0.1MNaOH`. `40.11 mL` of base had to be added to reach the equivalence point. What per cent by mass of this sample of vinegar is acetic acid?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Meq. of acetic acid = Meq. of `NaOH`
`(w)/(60)xx1000= 0.1xx40.11`
`w= 0.241 g`
`:. %` of acetic acid in vinegar `=(0.241)/(6)xx100= 4.01`
