normal acetic acid

Post by mtg »

I have a year 10 prac which asks for "Normal Acetic acid" and 'Dilute Acetic acid', never had this before, I am guessing concentrate glacial acetic acid is not what the teacher wants, but I am tempted. What would you suggest? Factors which effect the rate of reaction. ((Possibly vinegar and dilute vinegar, but that is not what is written).

That's what I would guess.
Normal vinegar is 4-6% and also equals to 1M, and for dilute I'd probably go 0.1M
Have you asked them what they actually want?
