G Suppose you are titrating vinegar, which is an acetic acid solution of unknown strength, with a sodium hydroxide solution according to the equation H C 2 H 3 O 2 + N a O H ⟶ H 2 O + N a C 2 H 3 O 2 If you require 31.26 mL of 0.1871 M N a O H solution to titrate 10.0 mL of H C 2 H 3 O 2 solution, what is the concentration of acetic acid in the vinegar?

The concentration of acetic acid in the vinegar is 0.585 M

Explanation:

To calculate the volume of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

where,

are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is

are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Thus the concentration of acetic acid in the vinegar is 0.585 M
