Hey guys need some help here...

We were doing a experiment on determine the percentage of ascorbic acid (C6H8O6) in a tablet of vitamin C.

We used NaOH to titrate.

so wat's the equation for this reaction?

and does this experiment seems familiar to anyone?
If so can you please give me the solusion to this experiment questions?
I really need the solusion if possible...

NaOH + C6H8O6 = C6H7O6Na + H2O
i think is this
