Case Study:
Task 1: Identify the possible toxicity
● What is the chemical formula for vinegar?
● Safety Data Sheet
(SDS) for the chemical in vinegar.
○ What is the chemical name?
○ What is the chemical composition?
○ What are some of the hazards?
○ What is the first aid measures?
What would your ORL-LD 50 for vinegar be in L/Lbs. (assume
50
the density of vinegar is 1.05 g/mL)
Task 2: Identify possible Remedies
● Find possible home remedies to neutralize the acid, your medicine cabinet is a good place to start
● For each remedy
○ Write the chemical formula(s) for the home remedies
○
Write a short description of why it was chosen
● For
ONE
remedy
○ Write the balanced chemical equation between the remedy and vinegar
○ If Jonathan drank 1.53 cups of vinegar, determine how many mL it would be? (1 cup=
236.588 mL)
○ Vinegar has a density of 1.05 g/mL. How many grams of vinegar were consumed?
○ Commercial Vinegar is 5% acetic acid. Based on your mass from the previous question, how many grams are acetic acid?
○ How many grams of your remedy would be needed to neutralize the acid?
○ Based on what you found on the SDS, was Jonathan in danger? Explain?
