The mass of the rock is 375 g. What is the density of the rock? *

0.263M of CH₃COOH is the concentration of the solution.

Explanation:

The reaction of acetic acid (CH₃COOH) with NaOH is:

CH₃COOH + NaOH → CH₃COO⁻Na⁺ + H₂O

1 mole of acetic acid reacts per mole of NaOH to produce sodium acetate and water.

In the equivalence point, moles of acetic acid are equal to moles of NaOH and moles of NaOH are:

0.0375L × (0.175 moles / L) = 6.56x10⁻³ moles of NaOH = moles of CH₃COOH.

As the sample of acetic acid had a volume of 25.0mL = 0.025L:

6.56x10⁻³ moles of CH₃COOH / 0.0250L =

0.263M of CH₃COOH is the concentration of the solution
