Suppose you are titrating vinegar, which is an acetic acid solution

0.373 M

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

HC2H3O2 + NaOH —> NaC2H3O2 + H2O

From the balanced equation above, the following were obtained:

Mole ratio of the acid, HC2H3O2 (nA) = 1

Mole ratio of the base, NaOH (nB) = 1

Next, we shall write out the data obtained from the question. This include:

Volume of base, NaOH (Vb) = 32.17 mL

Molarity of base, NaOH (Mb) = 0.116 M

Volume of acid, HC2H3O2 (Va) = 10 mL

Molarity of acid, HC2H3O2 (Ma) =..?

The molarity of the acid solution can be obtained as follow:

MaVa/MbVb = nA/nB

Ma x 10 / 0.116 x 32.17 = 1

Cross multiply

Ma x 10 = 0.116 x 32.17

Divide both side by 10

Ma = (0.116 x 32.17) /10

Ma = 0.373 M

Therefore, the concentration of the acetic acid is 0.373 M.

answer: -

reaction:

na + cl ⇌ nacl

balanced chemical equation:

na + 2cl ⇌ nacl2

sodium + clorine goes to form sodium chloride (table salt).

the product is nacl2.

and the reactants are na and cl.

(note: if you don’t know what ⇌ means, read below: -

⇌(double head arrow) means reversible reaction).
