Different vinegars can be 5-20% acetic acid solutions and have been used for medicinal purposes for thousands of years. If a person takes 2.0 tablespoons of vinegar a day and the Molarity of the vinegar is .84 M, then how many grams of acetic acid (HC2H3O2) will be consumed? 1 Tablespoon is 15 mL. .013 g
.026 g
.76 g
1.5 g

1.5g

Explanation:

Remember that Molarity = (#moles of solute)/(#liters of solution)

This problem informs us that the Molarity of the vinegar is 0.84 and that the solution is 15mL.

First let's get your SI units to the correct ones.

15mL (1L/1000mL) = 0.015L

Molarity = (#moles of solute)/(#liters of solution) ~

(Molarity)(#liters of solution) = #moles of solute

(0.84M)(.015L) = 0.0126moles of acetic acid per tablespoon

2 tablespoons a day = 0.0126moles*2 =  0.0252 moles of acetic acid.

Now that we have the # of moles of acetic acid we need to get our answer into grams. The molecular weight of HC2H3O2 is 60g/mole.

0.0252mole HC2H3O2 (60g HC2H3O2/1mole HC2H3O2) = 1.512g ~ 1.5g HC2H3O2.

rosa was looking for patterns to predict the products of chemical reactions. she recorded three similar decomposition reactions in the table.she should record 2licl + 3o2.

in the last row of the table. it is the thermal decomposition of chlorate lithium, hence, she should record these products as: lithium chloride ( 2licl ) and oxygen ( 3o2 )   2 > 2 licl + 3o2.
