Chapter 4, Problem 76PS
Vitamin C has the formula C6H8O6. Besides being an acid, it is a reducing agent. One method for determining the amount of vitamin C in a sample is to titrate it with a solution of bromine, Br2, an oxidizing agent.
C6H8O6(aq) + Br2(aq) → 2 HBr(aq) + C6H6O6(aq)
A 1.00-g "chewable" vitamin C tablet requires 27.85 ml of 0.102 M Br2 for titration to the equivalence point. What is the mass of vitamin C in the tablet?
