I suggest you look up titrations. It's a type of chemical procedure meant to accurately measure the concentration of an unknown concentration of a specific chemical. They're mainly meant for acid base reactions, so you're fine; I think there's also a procedure for redox reactions.
They require some rather specialized equipment, and anywhere you can find that equipment, you should also be able to find a chemist (even a high school chemistry teacher) who is familiar with the procedure, which is far too complicated for me to describe without diagrams. It's a very precise method, too - my father used it as a major part of doctorate study, and even first year undergraduate students are expected to be able to produce small errors in very precise data - I had a chem lab where we measured concentration to 0.0001 M, and lost 5% of the lab mark for every 0.0001 M off what the prepared sample was.
The molar concentration of nitric acid can vary depending on the specific solution. However, a common concentration of nitric acid used in laboratories is around 16 M (molar). This means there are 16 moles of nitric acid in 1 liter of solution.
Nitric acid (followed by a grade or concentration description)
Nitric acid can be dilute or concentrated. This is simply a matter of how much of it you have in a given amount of a solution, which is variable.
A dilute solution of nitric acid has a lower concentration of nitric acid molecules compared to a concentrated solution. This leads to the dilute solution having a lower acidic strength and being less corrosive. Concentrated nitric acid, on the other hand, has a higher concentration of nitric acid molecules, making it more acidic and corrosive.
The molarity of nitric acid, HNO3, can vary depending on the concentration of the solution. For example, a 1 M solution of nitric acid would contain 1 mole of HNO3 per liter of solution. It is important to know the concentration or volume of the solution to determine the molarity of nitric acid.

They are different acids. They are also different by acid strength and the concentration of them. (Vinegar is 5% acetic acid in water, while a normal concentration of 70-78% nitric acid is stronger)
Hydrochloric acid and nitric acid have comparable degrees of acidity; the strength of either acid will depend upon the concentration.
When comparing H⁺ ions in a solution of nitric acid (HNO₃) to those in ethanoic acid (CH₃COOH), you will find that nitric acid is a strong acid and dissociates completely in solution, resulting in a higher concentration of H⁺ ions. In contrast, ethanoic acid is a weak acid and only partially dissociates, leading to a lower concentration of H⁺ ions. Consequently, the pH of the nitric acid solution will be much lower (more acidic) than that of the ethanoic acid solution. This difference in ion concentration affects their reactivity and strength as acids.

1) What is the initial pH of the nitric acid solution?Nitric acid is a strong acid and therefore dissociates almost completely in water. The concentration of the hydronium ions must be .2M as well. This concentration yields a pH of (4) pH = -log[H3O+] = -log(.2) = .7
HCl is a stronger acid and will dissolve more of the shell than an equivalent concentration of nitric acid.
The pH of nitric acid is very low, typically around 0-1 for concentrated solutions. Nitric acid is a strong acid that fully dissociates in water, leading to a high concentration of hydronium ions and a low pH.
