DETERMINATION OF VITAMIN C CONTENT IN COMMERCIAL (CENOVIS) TABLET ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ the vitamin C content of a commercial tablet is determined and compared with the manufacturers’ specification. Vitamin C is water-soluble and is an enantiomer of ascorbic acid. (Commercial vitamin C is often a mixture of ascorbic acid and other ascorbates.) Ascorbic acid‚ C6H8O6‚ is a reducing agent that reacts rapidly with iodine (I2). As the iodine is added during the titration‚ the ascorbic acid is
