Observations from data collected: Overall through the range of data from 0.000 to 0.180 there was a small range most of the outcomes were the same and consistant, the only outlier of the data was the no alcohol mouthwash which ranged from 0.178 to o.503 showing that either during the lab there was a technical error made or it had a lot of alcohol concentration.
Calculations made in lab:
Concentration of ethanol solution: 96%
Density: 0.78g/ml m/m% = mass of solute * 100/ mass of solution
C1*V1 = C2V2
Convert from percentage to molarity
Find equation
Calibration curve find unkown values
Example of doing this:
Density of solution: mass of solution/volume of solution
Concentration of ethanol: mass of solute/mass of solution *100
