Question

What is the mass of 12.83 mL of acetic acid (98% wt/wt)?

Answer 1

The mass of the acetic acid is 13.5 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

weight percent of the acetic acid (ratio of solute to total solution), w/w = 98 %

volume of acetic acid, v = 12.83 mL

density of acetic acid, ρ = 1.05 g/mL

density is given by;

density = mass / volume

mass = density x volume

mass of the acetic acid in 12.83 mL = 1.05 g/mL x 12.83 mL

mass of the acetic acid in 12.83 mL = 13.5 g

Therefore, the mass of the acetic acid is 13.5 g
