Can anyone help me with these two questions before my half yearly?

A bottle of vinegar is labelled 4.0% w/v (4.0g per 100mL of solution) acetic acid (ethanoic acid)

a) Describe the laboratory procedure you would use to verify this procedure. (3)
b) Calculate te volume of 0.118mol/L NaOH required to neutralise the acid in 5.0mL of this vinegar

I'm having more trouble with part b, but any help would be appreciated.

Ta.

Sorry; it has been a really slow Chemistry lesson!

4.0g per 100.0mL
So, 0.2g per 5.0mL

moles in acid sample: n = m/mm = 0.2/60 = 3.33 x 10^-3
Since mole ratio of titration reaction 1:1, moles of NaOH: n = 3.33 x 10^-3

Volume of NaOH needed: v = (3.33 x 10^-3)/.118 = 0.02797L (4 sig. figs.) = 27.97mL

i have a thing with superscript :)

CH3COOH(aq) + NaOH(aq) --> NaCH3COO(aq) + H2O(l)

ratio of CH3COOH and NaOH = 1:1
CH3COOH: 3.33 x 10-3 mol
therefore: NaOH: 3.33 x 10-3 mol = 27.97mL

i don't know how to tell you without turning everything into subscript... = /

subscript: put "sub" into square brackets - i.e. [ ] and then write whatever you want to be subscripted. when you finish writing add "/sub" in square brackets [ ]

superscript: same thing, but with "sup" :D
