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 s 70-90 mg. A sweet lime contains 2.82x10-4 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 2.82x10-4 mol of ascorbic acid. Express the mass in grams to three significant figures.

When you have an "upset stomach", most people consume a chemical known as an antacid. Antacids contain the chemical Al(OH)3 which reacts with stomach acid (HCI) in the reaction below. This reaction, between an acid and a base, is commonly called a neutralization. For your convenience, the molar mass of each substance is shown below their formulas (in purple). Use this information to make the requested calculation: (antacid) (stomach acid) Al(OH)3(s) + 3 HCI(aq) --> AICI3(aq) + 3 H20() 78.006 36.461 133.341 18.016 How many moles of stomach acid can be neutralized by 3.60 mol of antacid?
