In a beaker 20mL of 0.5M Ca(OH)2 and 80mL of 0.5M CH3COOH are mixed and then this mixture is added on 2g of active coal. After waiting for about 20 minutes the solution is filtered and the filter is titrated by 1M NaOH solution in the presence of an indicator. 10mL of the NaOH solution has been used. Calculate the amount of acetic acid adsorbed per gram

Question

In a beaker 20mL of 0.5M Ca(OH)2 and 80mL of 0.5M CH3COOH are mixed and then this mixture is added on 2g of active coal. After waiting for about 20 minutes the solution is filtered and the filter is titrated by 1M NaOH solution in the presence of an indicator. 10mL of the NaOH solution has been used. Calculate the amount of acetic acid adsorbed per gram of the coal in moles. Explain all the steps and reactions of the experimental process by your own comments.
