You have a 2.0 mL sample of acetic acid (molar mass 60.05 g/mol) of unknown concentration. You titrate it to its endpoint with 20.0 mL NaOH (0.1 M). What mass of acetic acid was dissolved in the 2.0 mL of solution used?

The mass of acetic acid used is 0.12 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration 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:

To calculate the mass of solute, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

Given mass of acetic acid = ? g

Molar mass of acetic acid = 60.05 g/mol

Molarity of solution = 1 M

Volume of the solution = 2.0 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the mass of acetic acid used is 0.12 grams

the tides are influenced by both the moon and the sun, it's easy to see that when the sun lines up with the moon and the earth, as during a new moon or full moon, the tidal effect is increased. these are known as spring tides, named not for the season, but for the fact that the water "springs" higher than normal. on the other hand, if the sun and the moon are 90 degrees apart in relation to an observer on earth as during the first quarter moon or third quarter moon, then high tides are not as high as they normally would be. this is because despite its greater distance, the sun's mass allows it to exert enough gravitational force on the oceans that it can negate some of the effects of the moon's pull. this phenomenon of lower high tides is called a neap tide. if you need more information on this topic visit moonconnection.com.
