Vinegar is a solution of acetic acid (the solute) in water (the solvent) with a solution density of 1010 g/l. if vinegar is 0.80 m acetic acid, what is the % by mass concentration of acetic acid in vinegar?

4.8 %

Explanation:

We are asked the concentration in % by mass, given the molarity of the solution and its density.

0.8 molar solution means that we have 0.80 moles of acetic acid in 1 liter of solution. If we convert the moles of acetic acid to grams, and the 1 liter solution to grams, since we are given the density of solution, we will have the values necessary to calculate the % by mass:

MW acetic acid = 60.0 g/mol

mass acetic acid (the solute) = 0.80 mol x 60 g / mol = 48.00 g

mass of solution = 1000 cm³ x 1.010 g/ cm³      (1l= 1000 cm³)

                            = 1010 g

% (by mass) = 48.00 g/ 1010 g  x 100 = 4.8 %

c-14 is carbon-14, or radiocarbon.   it is a radioactive isotope of carbon with an atomic nucleus containing 6 protons and 8 neutrons.
