Question:
a) The density of Acetic acid is 1.05 g/mL and the density ofwater is 1.0 g/mL. The molar mass of Acetic Acid is 60.052 g/mol.What is the molarity of CH3COOH in water of a 5% acidity vinegarsolution?
b) The pKa of acetic acid is 4.75. If our while vinegar solutionwas measured to have a pH of 2.66, use the henderson-hasselbalchequation (pH= pKa + log10 ([A-]/[HA]) and the number from part a tofigure the total amount of acetic acid. Figure out if the acid isin its acidic form (CH3COOH) or in its more basic form (CH3COO-) orsomething in between.
