Ascorbic acid, or vitamin c (c6h8o6, molar mass = 176 g/mol), is a naturally occurring organic compound with antioxidant properties. a healthy adult’s daily requirement of vitamin c is 70-90 mg. a sweet lime contains 2.83×10−4 mol of ascorbic acid. to determine whether the ascorbic acid in a sweet lime meets the daily requirement, calculate the mass of ascorbic acid in 2.83×10−4 mol of ascorbic acid.

the law of conservation of mass states that in a chemical reaction, the total mass of reactants is equal to the total mass of products. because atoms are only rearranged in a chemical reaction, there must be the same number of sodium atoms and chlorine atoms in both the reactants and products

hey there!

mass = 6.75 g

volume =   9 cm³

therefore:

d = mass / volume

d   = 6.75 / 9

d = 0.7 g/cm³

answer b

c) should be the answer.
