In this experiment to be carried out with the titration method, 0.1N KOH was used, and two separate titrations were made, one for the old oil and one for the new oil. As a result of the titration, 4.6 mL of KOH was spent for one and 9.1 mL of KOH for the other. If the amount of oil weighed for both is 10 g and the amount of KOH consumed in the oil-free titration is 1.2 mL, calculate the acidity values for both oils, write which value this value belongs to and the reason for it.arrow_forward
