balanced reaction : (this is how i would set up my data) CH3COOH + NaHCO3 → CH3COONa + H2O + CO2 C= 0.500mol/l________________________ m=? Gas in Balloon: 16.5-1.2=15.3 -13.5= 1.8 gas =1.8g

the question is: Sodium Hydrogen carbonate (baking soda) is reacted with excess acetic acid (vinegar) with a concentration of 0.500mol/L in an Erlenmeyer flsk. The proucts are sodium acetate, water and carbon dioxide gas. The gas produced is collected in a balloon attached to the flask, tied...
