The last calculation we need to do is find the %acetic acid (a.k.a the "acidity"). We can average all of the acetic acid masses from the completely reacted samples in the previous step. For now, let's assume we ended up with a final average mass of 2.37 g acetic acid consumed. If the initial volume of acetic acid used was 50.0 mL, what's the %m/v of acetic acid?
The chlorine content of a pool with a capacity of 1.80×104 L was discovered to be 0.00145% by mass, which is well below the sanitary level of 0.00305%. How much chlorine needs to be added in order for the pool to meet the health regulation standard of 0.00305%? First draw a flowchart, then given that the pool consists of fresh water and chlorine, write the total mass (or alternatively chlorine mass) and fresh water balance equations, and then calculate the mass of chlorine in grams that needs to be added to the pool. Assume that the density of the pool water is the same as that of fresh water (1.00 kg/L), the pool is filled to its rated capacity (1.80×104 L), and that the required chlorine can be added to this capacity.

You are a chemist and FBI crime scene investigator and find a sealed bag containing a suspicious white substance. The substance turns out to be a powder containing fentanyl (C22H28N2O, 336.470 g/mol) and lactose (C12H22O11) 342.298 g/mol). To find out exactly how much fentanyl was in the bag, you use a 100.0 mL volumetric flask to dissolve 1.000 g of the white powder in water. The osmotic pressure for the solution at laboratory temperature, 21.7 °C, is 538.2 mmHg. What percent of the white powder is fentanyl?

Two 1-L beakers, A and B, each containing a different aqueous solution of fructose (a nonvolatile sugar with MW = 180.16 g/mol) are placed together in a box, which is then sealed. The temperature remains constant at 20 °C. Initially, there is 220 mL of solution in A and 650 mL of solution in B. As the solutions stand in the sealed box, their volumes change slowly for a while. When they stop changing, beaker A contains 430 mL and beaker B contains 440 mL. It is then determined that the solution in A is 1.74 M in fructose and has a density of 1.12 g mL-¹. (a) What is the molar concentration of fructose in the solution in beaker B at the end? M (b) Calculate the concentration of fructose in the solution in A at the start. M (c) Calculate the concentration of the fructose in the solution in B at the start. M (d) The vapor pressure of pure water at 20 °C is 17.5 torr. What is the pressure of water vapor in the box at the end, after the volumes have stopped changing? torr
