Given the stock solution (0.017 M) and diluted solution (0.012M) can you help me compute with How much THE REQUIRED AMOUNT OF 500mg ASCORBIC ACID TABLETS should i need to pulverize? and; How much THE NECESSARY AMOUNT OF WATER should i add to make the desired concentration of stock solution?

Given the stock solution (0.017 M) and diluted solution (0.012M) can you help me compute with

  • How much THE REQUIRED AMOUNT OF 500mg ASCORBIC ACID TABLETS should i need to pulverize? and;
  • How much THE NECESSARY AMOUNT OF WATER should i add to make the desired concentration of stock solution?
Experiment #1 – Preparation of Ascorbic Acid Stock Solution and Dilution
Materials:
500 mg ascorbic acid tablets
2L Distilled water
Measuring cups / measuring spoon
Mortar and pestle
Stirrer
Parchment paper or any non-porous sheet
Dropper or syringe with no needle (optional)
Weighing scale (optional)
Amber bottle; or Glass bottle with tint; or Glass bottle and aluminum foil
Masking tape; or Sticker label
Permanent marker
Methods:
1. On a clean, dry, and flat surface, place a parchment paper, or any non-porous flat
sheet.
2. Pulverize the required amount of 500 mg ascorbic acid tablet/(s) into fine powder.
Note: Assume that the tablet contains pure 500 mg ascorbic acid without any
excipient/(s). The amount of tablets will depend on the concentration assigned to
your group.
3. On a clean and dry glass bottle or tinted jar, add the necessary amount of distilled
water to make the desired concentration of stock solution assigned to your group.
Make sure to place the computations used in the data sheet.

4. Mix and stir the powder with the distilled water until homogeneous.
5. Label the bottle properly. Make sure to label this as your stock solution and indicate
its concentration, total volume of solution, and chemical name.
Note: Check the MSDS for the ideal storage conditions for ascorbic acid-
containing solutions. Adjust and modify according to its sensitivity.
6. Document using a photo with a white / plain background.
7. Compute and add more solvent to achieve the desired dilution. Use the prepared stock
solution to prepare an aliquot assigned to your group. Make sure to place the
computations used for dilution (M1V1 = M2V2) in the data sheet.
