Add 2 parts acetic acid 5% (5 acetic acid or household vinegar) to 3 parts water (or sterile water for irrigation depending ont he need) and you will render 2% acetic acid.
parts are whatever volume you want.
i.e. if you need 50ml of 2 acetic acid; use 20ml of 5% acetic acid and 30ml of water.
or you can set up the allogation method as below.
Say you nee 50ml of 2% acetic acid and all you have is 5% acetic acid you do the following with a tick tack toe :
To get the 3 parts you take the 5 at the bottom and subtract across the middle (2 percent desired) and the difference is 3. To get the bottom right answer (2parts) you take the difference of zero from 2 and the diff is 2.
0% (water) - - 3 (parts water)
- 2% (desired) -
5% (AA) - - 2 (parts 5% AA)
with a total of 5 parts (3 parts water and 2 parts AA) you multiple your desired amount versus the fraction of parts for each.
example 3 parts water divided by 5 total parts equals 60% times 50ml equals 30ml.
2 parts 5% AA divided by 5 total parts eqauls 40% times 50ml equals 20ml.

How do you make 0.2M acetic acid solution - 100mL and the expected pH of this solution?
10 percent acetic acid indicates there is .1 liters of acetic acid, which is equal to 1.75 moles, or 105 grams per liter. To make this solution, add 7 liters of the 2M solution to 1 liter of water, or 7/8 solution to 1/8 water.
What is the difference between glacial Acetic acid and acetic acid one - five percent solution?
Glacial acetic acid is concentrated acetic acid at approximately 95% acetic acid with 5% water by volume. 1-5% acetic acid is very weak, being composed of 95-99% water. For reference, glacial acetic acid can only be purchased through commercial suppliers with a valid reason to acquire it while household vinegar is generally a 2-3% acetic acid solution and available in every grocery store.
Chemical equation for acetic acid?
Acetic acid and water doesn't react; they form a solution.
How do you prepare a solution of 6N acetic acid from glacial acetic acid?
Molecular Weight of Acetic acid=60.05 density: 1.049 gr/cm3 0.5 molar=60.05/2= 30.025 gr you have molecular weight and density of Acetic acid so you can find the volume: d=m/v => v=30.025/1.049= 28.62 ml Add 28.62 ml of acetic acid in a beaker and complete to 1L by adding 971.38 ml water, you will have 1 L of 0.5 M acetic acid solution.
What are the elemants in acetic acid?
Acetic acid composition: Carbon = 2 atoms Hydrogen = 4 atoms Oxygen = 2 atoms
What are the 2 organic acids?
acetic acid formic acid citric acid
How do you convert acetic acid to acetaldehyde?
Acetaldehyde can be obtained by reduction of acetic acid CH3COOH+2[H]--------------CH3CHO+H2O
How many atoms are in Hydrogen and Oxygen?
Vinegar itself is not a compound. It is a mixture of acetic acid and water, the acetic acid being the active ingredient. The formula for acetic acid is C2H5O2, so it has 2 atoms of carbon, 5 of hydrogen, and 2 of oxygen.
How do you prepare 1N citric acid?
To make 1 N acetic acid dissolve 1 mole of pure acetic acid in water and dilute it to 1.000 L. There are 2 methods you can use to make the 1 N acetic acid solution, by weight, and by volume. Molar mass acetic acid = 60.05 g/mol Weigh out 60.05 g acetic acid and add to a 1.000 L flask. Then dilute the acetic acid to the 1.000 L mark in a 1.000 L volumetric flask using distilled or deionized water.
How many atoms of oxygen and hydrogen are in vinegar?
Vinegar itself is not a compound. It is a mixture of acetic acid and water, the acetic acid being the active ingredient. The formula for acetic acid is C2H5O2, so it has 2 atoms of carbon, 5 of hydrogen, and 2 of oxygen.
How many hydrogen and oxygen atoms are in vinegar?
Vinegar itself is not a compound. It is a mixture of acetic acid and water, the acetic acid being the active ingredient. The formula for acetic acid is C2H5O2, so it has 2 atoms of carbon, 5 of hydrogen, and 2 of oxygen.
What are the elements in vinegar?
Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen - so 3.
