How Much Apple Juice Do You Need for Daily Vitamin C?

[babbagee]

We had to do an experiment to detrmine the amount of vitamin c(aka ascorbic acid) in a sample using redox titration. We used apple juice as a sample. I found out that there is .350mgAA/ml of sample. So the question is

How much of your sample would you need to consume to provide the FDA's recommended daily allowance of 60mg/day, and linus pauling's recommended daily allowance of 16g/day.

For the first allowance i just divided 60mg/day by .350mgAA/ml to get 171ml/day and for the second one i did the same thing and got 45714ml/day.

Did I do my calculations correctly and do the numbers seem reasonable?

THe math looks correct, so the answers must be right.

Based on your calculations, it seems like you have correctly determined the amount of sample needed to meet the FDA's recommended daily allowance and Linus Pauling's recommended daily allowance for vitamin C. However, the amount of sample needed for Linus Pauling's recommendation seems extremely high at 45714ml/day. It is important to remember that these recommendations are based on average needs and may vary for each individual. It is always best to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized recommendations on vitamin C intake. Additionally, consuming a variety of fruits and vegetables in addition to the apple juice can help meet your daily vitamin C needs.
