If a driver provides 3.07 g of ethanol (C2H6O) into the Breathalyzer, what is the concentration of acetic acid (C2H4O2) if we assume the final volume is 100. mL?
Moles of ethanol = mass / molar mass
= 3.07 / 46
= 0.0667 moles
In breathalyzer equation
3C2H5OH + 2K2Cr2O7 + 8H2SO4 = 2Cr2(SO4)3 + 3CH3COOH + 2K2SO4 + 11 H2O
so mole of C2H5OH = mole of CH3COOH = 0.0667
So Molarity = mole / volume ( in litre)
= 0.0667 / 0.1
= 0.667 M
If you satisfied with the solution please like it thankxx
If you have any query please comment

One type of breathalyzer employs a fuel cell to measure the quantity of alcohol in the breath. When a suspect blows into the breathalyzer, ethyl alcohol is oxidized to acetic acid at the anode: CH3CH2OH(g)+4OH−(aq)→HC2H3O2(g)+3H2O(l)+4e− At the cathode, oxygen is reduced: O2(g)+2H2O(l)+4e−→4OH−(aq) The overall reaction is the oxidation of ethyl alcohol to acetic acid and water. When a suspected drunk driver blows 185 mL of his breath through this breathalyzer, the breathalyzer produces an average of 325 mA of current...
The following solutions of ethanol (C2H6O, M = 46.0 g mol-1 ; d = 0.790 g mL-1 ) were mixed: • 50.0 mL of concentration 8.50 % (v/v) • 75.0 mL of concentration 72.0 g L-1 • 1.35 L of concentration 950 ppm • 8.00 x 104 μL of concentration 25.0 mg mL-1 • 125 mL of concentration 1.25 M Assuming that mixing has no effect on the total volume, what is the concentration of ethanol in the final solution,...
A breathalyzer for alcohol concentration was used on a suspected drunk driver. The test is known to provide a positive result in 95% of cases where the alcohol concentration is above the legal limit (intoxicated) . However it is known that the test provides a positive outcome on 4% of individuals who had not consumed alcohol (false positives). What is the probability that the driver is intoxicated given a positive to the test?
A breathalyzer is a device used to estimate the blood alcohol content of a suspected drunk driver by measuring the amount of alcohol in one's breath. The fuel cell breathalyzer employs the reaction below: CH2CH2OH(s)+O2(g) --HCH,O,(g)+H2O(g) When a suspected drunk driver blows his or her breath through the fuel cell breathalyzer. the device measures the current produced by the reaction and calculates the percent alcohol in the breath When a suspected drunk driver blows 208 mL of his breath through...
