If vinegar only contains 5% acetic acid, how many grams of acetic acid will there be in 500 grams of vinegar?

Step 1. Calculate the volume of acetic acid

Volume

=

250.0

mL vinegar

×

5 mL acetic acid

100

mL vinegar

=

12 g acetic acid

Step 2. Calculate the mass of acetic acid

The density of acetic acid is 1.05 g/mL.

Mass of acetic acid

=

12

mL acetic acid

×

1.05 g acetic acid

1

mL acetic acid

=

13 g acetic acid

Note: The answer can have only one significant figure because that is all you gave for the percent concentration. However, I calculated the result to two significant figures.

false

because it does not have the potential to be entirely used up

ill try to . no promises tho.
