Tre ABBE EEE (C) ACID VALU! Principle - The oil is dissolved in an appropriate solvent , after the solution is titrated with sodium hydroxide solution. The amount of sodium hydroxide soln. Consumed is a measure of the acidity of an oil. Weigh 2.0gm accurately oil sample in at least 50,0ml of neutral solvent: The soln. thoroughly mixed and stirring , then titrated with 0.1 N NaoH soln. Using 2.0ml of phenolphthalein indicator. The end point was reached when pink colour. The Acid value is calculated by following formula, Acid Value = VxNxFx 56.1 Ww Where V:- Volume of Std. NaOH Soin. N:- Normality of NaOH Soin. W:- Weight of oil sample Reagents :- (1) Solvent :- Mix equal volumes of 96% Ethanol and Toluene . Neutralize shortly before use. C Methomat aud Tehacne ) 2) 0.10N NaOH soln, :- Weigh 4.0gm accurately A, R. grade NaOH pellets in DM water. Cool it then make up one liter. (3) Phenoiphthalein indicator :- Wt. 1.0gm of indicator and dissolve it in 96 % Ethanol. Make up 100ml with ethanol. Limit :- Max. 15
