Explanation / Answer

5) moles of acetic acid in the vinegar sample = moles of NaOH consumed = 0.85*10^-3*1 = 0.85*10^-3 moles of acetic acid

6)Mass of acetic acid = no.of moles*molecular weight = 0.85*10^-3*60 = 0.051 gm = 51 mg


7)weight % of acetic acid = wt of acetic acid/weight of sample)*100 = 0.051/0.987)*100 = 5.167%
