Mola and Rity were tasked to analyze the acidity of a 10.0-mL fermented milk sample diluted with water in a 250-mL volumetric flask. Mola obtained a 15.0-mL aliquot of this solution, diluted it to 50.0 mL, and then titrated this diluted sample. Titration data were given to Rity and she found out that the 50.0-mL diluted sample contains 0.21 mmol of lactic acid. What is the lactic acid concentration (in M) of the titrated sample?

Question

Mola and Rity were tasked to analyze the acidity of a 10.0-mL fermented milk sample diluted with water in a 250-mL volumetric flask. Mola obtained a 15.0-mL aliquot of this solution, diluted it to 50.0 mL, and then titrated this diluted sample. Titration data were given to Rity and she found out that the 50.0-mL diluted sample contains 0.21 mmol of lactic acid.

What is the lactic acid concentration (in M) of the titrated sample?

Mola and Rity were tasked to analyze the acidity of a 10.0-mL fermented milk
sample diluted with water in a 250-mL volumetric flask. Mola obtained a 15.0-
mL aliquot of this solution, diluted it to 50.0 mL, and then titrated this diluted
sample. Titration data were given to Rity and she found out that the 50.0-mL
diluted sample contains 0.21 mmol of lactic acid.
MW: Lactic Acid (90.08)
