    An acid-base titration lab was performed with vinegar to determine its concentration. Three trials were conducted where a base of known molarity was added to vinegar until neutralization. The average molarity of the vinegar was calculated to be 1.0896M. Using this value, the concentration of acetic acid in the vinegar was determined to be 6.54%. Compared to the class average of 5.04892%, the percent error was calculated to be 29.33%, indicating the vinegar meets federal standards.

    Data
    Trial 1
    Trial 2
    Trial 3

    Start
    3.31 mL
    0 mL
    0 mL

    Finish
    30.2 mL
    27.32 mL
    27.51 mL

    Final
    26.89 mL
    27.32 mL
    27.51 mL

    Average molarity 1.0896 M

    Calculations
    Finding molarity
    Trial 1: (0.20M)(26.89mL) x (1mol/1mol) x (1/5.0mL) = 1.076M
    Trial 2: (0.20M)(27.32mL) x (1mol/1mol) x (1/5.0mL) = 1.093M
    Trial 3: (0.20M)(27.51mL) x (1mol/1mol) x (1/5.0mL) = 1.1004M
    Finding concentration
    (1.0896M)(60g)/(1000) x 100 = 6.54%
    Finding %error
    Given that 5.04892 is the class avg.
    (6.54 5.04892)/504892 x 100 = 29.33% error

    Conclusion
    The vinegar does meet the federal standard.

    Molarity
