I think you meant " How many moles of acetic acid in 25 grams of acetic acid? "
We will use the chemist formula for acetic acid,
25 grams C2H4O2 (1 mole C2H4O2/60.052 grams)
= 0.42 mole acetic acid

What is the product of complete oxidation of propane 1 2 diol?
acetic acid and formic acid
What acids are formed when formaldehyde breaks down?
Formic acid, just as acetaldehyde goes to acetic acid
What this chemical symbol CHOO referred to?
When you see a COOH group in a formula it usually mean that you have an organic acid. for instance HCOOH is Formic Acid and CH3COOH is Acetic Acid.
If you need 5 moles of sulphuric acid how many grams of it will you weigh?
The mass of sulfuric acid is 490,395 grams.
Why the oxidation of formic acid gives red precipitate while the oxidation of acetic acid not?
I think you are referring to the test using Fehlings solution. Fehlings solution oxidises aldehydes and ketones and formic acid and is in turn reduced. The red precipitate is the copper(I) oxide formed by reduction of the copper(II) complex found in Fehlings solution. Acetic acid is not readily oxidised and so there is no precipitate. See link for more information on what the complex is in Fehlings solution and how it is prepared.
Which acid what is the strongest - Formic acid or Acetic acid?
Acetic acid is stronger than formic acid.
Formic acid is stonger than acetic acid?
yes formic acid is stronger than acetic acid.
Is acetic acid or formic acid is more stronger?
Formic acid is about ten times stronger.
How many grams of acetic acid would you use to make 10 liters of a 0.1 Mole aqueous solution of acetic acid?
C2H4O2 Find moles first. Molarity = moles of solute/Liters of solution moles C2H4O2 = molarity/Liters solution moles C2H4O2 = 0.1 M/10 L = 0.01 moles C2H4O2 -----------------------------------now, molar mass time moles 0.01 moles C2H4O2 (60.052 grams/1 mole C2H4O2) = 0.60 grams acetic acid needed --------------------------------------------
How do you distinguish between acetic acid and formic acid?
Formic acid gives positive result in both tollen's test and fehlings test. but acetic acid doesnot.
What are the 2 organic acids?

What are the differences between formic acid and acetic acid as buffer in LC-MS?
Formic acid is generally considered to have lower contamination levels than acetic acid, especially metal ions. Formic acid is slightly more volatile and less smelly! -DN
Why formic acid is stronger acid than acetic acid?
Hydrochloric acid, HCl
Why formic acid is stronger than acetic acid?
As we know that acetic acid is CH3 substituted formic acid .since CH3 is an electron donating relative to hydrogen .so, it donates the electron to carboxyl group and makes it more negative. this phenomenon makes acetic acid weaker acid than formic acid .Thus formic acid is stronger acid than acetic acid.

Acetic acid is the simplest carboxylic acid?
No, Acetic acid (ethanoic acid, CH3COOH) is the second simplest. Methanoic acid (formic acid) is the simplest with the formula HCOOH.
