In a chemistry lab, you have two vinegars. one is 5% acetic acid, and one is 6.5% acetic acid. you want to make 200 ml of a vinegar with 6% acetic acid. how many milliliters of each vinegar do you need to mix together

Assume that the amount needed from the 5% acid is x and that the amount needed from the 6.5% acid is y.

We are given that:
The volume of the final solution is 200 ml
This means that:
x + y = 200
This can be rewritten as:
x = 200 - y > equation I

We are also given that:
The concentration of the final solution is 6%
This means that:
5%x + 6.5%y = 6% (x+y)
This can be rewritten as:
0.05 x + 0.065 y = 0.06 (x+y) > equation II

Substitute with equation I in equation II and solve for y as follows:
0.05 x + 0.065 y = 0.06 (x+y)
0.05 (200-y) + 0.065 y = 0.06 (200-y+y)
10 - 0.05 y + 0.065 y = 12
0.015y = 12-10 = 2
y = 2/0.015
y = 133.3334 ml

Substitute with the y in equation I to get the x as follows:
x = 200 - y
x = 200 - 133.3334
x = 66.6667 ml

Based on the above calculations:
The amount required from the 5% acid = x = 66.6667 ml
The amount required from the 6.5% acid = y = 133.3334 ml

Hope this helps :)

To answer, let x be the volume, in mL, of the of the vinegar with 6.5% acetic acid. With this representation, the volume of the vinegar with 5% acetic acid is equal to 200-x. Using the component mass balance for acetic acid, we will have the equation,

(0.05)(200 - x) + (0.065)(x) = (0.06)(200)

The value of x from the equation is 133.3. The value of 200-x is therefore equal to 66.67.

5%-acetic acid vineger = 66.67 mL
6.5% acetic acid vinegar = 133.3 mL

the density(ratio between mass and volume as m/v) decreases from top to bottom in periodic table group as the size increases and nuclear charge decreases. but in periods density increases from left to right as atom size decreases and nuclear charge increases.

a rain shadow is a dry region of land on the side that is protected against the prevailing winds of a mountain range. the prevailing winds are the winds that occur most of the time in a particular place of the earth

prevailing winds carry air toward the mountain range. as the air rises up over a mountain range, the air cools, water vapor condenses, and clouds form. on this side of the mountains, called the windward side, precipitation falls in the form of rain or snow. this dry air produces a rain shadow.

Straightforward questions answered in the powerpoint slidesreaction: heating the starting materials under refluxwhat does it mean to heat under reflux? why do we choose water as the reflux solvent? what are boiling chips used for? why do we put a condenser on top of the reaction? why do we add heat and let the reaction stir for 30 minutes? why do we add sulfuric acid to the reaction after it cools as opposed to when it’s still hot? separation: filtration of precipitatewhy don’t we do an aqueous and organic extraction in the separatory funnel? why do you rinse the salicylic acid on the filter with ice cold water? purification: recrystallization of salicylic acid (no hot filtration needed)what is the difference in the amount of room temperature water vs. boiling water needed to dissolve the salicylic acid (assume a 1.2 gram yield of salicylic acid)? remember, in the lab if you need x ml of boiling water to dissolve a solid, then you should add a little more (definitely no more than 1.5 times the theoretical amount) to ensure it doesn’t recrystallize prematurely. analysis: melting point of salicylic acidwhat can you conclude if the melting point of the salicylic acid you just synthesized is 152-155oc and the 1: 1 mix of your product and “synthetic” salicylic acid is 151-154oc?
