First Practice
Results 8th of June: 1,2/1,3 mL (without agitator) 15th oh June: 1ml/1,1 mL (with agitator) Median: 1,15 mL Calculations 1,15 mL of coloring X 1000 mL of ascorbic acid = 1 mL of standard solution 1000 mg of ascorbic acid 1,15 mL coloring mg of ascorbic acid

Second practice
Results 7th of June : 2,38/2,37/2,35 mL (without agitator, 1st test) 8th of June : 2/2,9/2,5/2,4 mL [take off the highest and lowest values] Median: 2,4 mL
Clculs
2,4 mL of coloring X 1 mg of ascorbic acid X 100 mL of juice= 5 mL of stan. solution 1,15 mL of ascorbic acid

41,74 mg of ascorbic acid for 100 mL of juice
