Estimation of Sodium Carbonate
Aim : To estimate the amount of Sodium Carbonate present in 500ml of given
solution by using 0.1M HCl solution.
Apparatus and Chemicals required :
Burette, Burette stand, Pipette, Conical flask, Methyl orange Indicator,
Here, 2 moles of HCl reacts with 1 mole Na2CO3
Procedure : The solution taken in burette is given 0.1M HCl solution. 20ml of
from yellow to pale pink colour. Then, the volume of HCl solution run down
from burette is noted. The titrations are repeated till consecutive readings are
obtained
Tabular Form :
2 20 ml
3 20 ml
∴ Volume of HCl solution = _______________________

Formula : n = n

V1 = Volume of HCl solution = ____________________ ml
M 1 = Molarity of HCl solution = 0.1M
n1 = No.of moles of HCl in the equation = 2 mole
VM n
∴ Molarity of Na2CO3 = M 2 = 1 1 × 2
n1 V2
V1 × 0.1 1

= ________________ M
∴ Molarity of Na2CO3 = _________________ M
= ________________ grams
