Hello!
First, we can assume the density of water to be 1 g/mL, so the volume of water would be 725 mL. The density of Acetic Acid (Pure) is 1,05 g/mL so 8 grams would represent 7,61 mL
Now we can apply the following conversion factor to calculate the molarity of the solution, using the molar mass of Acetic Acid:
![[CH_3CO_2H]=\frac{8 g_{CH_3CO_2H} }{725 mL + 7,61 mL}* \frac{1000 mL}{1 L}* \frac{1 mol_{CH_3CO_2H} }{60,05 g_{CH_3CO_2H} }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCH_3CO_2H%5D%3D%5Cfrac%7B8%20g_%7BCH_3CO_2H%7D%20%20%7D%7B725%20mL%20%2B%207%2C61%20mL%7D%2A%20%5Cfrac%7B1000%20mL%7D%7B1%20L%7D%2A%20%5Cfrac%7B1%20mol_%7BCH_3CO_2H%7D%20%7D%7B60%2C05%20g_%7BCH_3CO_2H%7D%20%7D)
![[CH_3CO_2H]=0,1818 M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCH_3CO_2H%5D%3D0%2C1818%20M)
So, the concentration of acetic acid would be 0,1818 M
Have a nice day!
