PRACTICE PROBLEMS

DOUBLE TITRATION INDICATOR

1. A 1.2034grams sample was titrated with 0.5324M HCl, with phenolphthalein
as indicator. The solution turned colorless after the addition of 25.6ml of the
acid. Methyl orange was then added and a volume of 0.3ml more of the acid
was required for the color to change to pink. Determine the identity of the
sample and its percent purity.

2. A 5.0ml mixture containing Na 2CO3 and NaOH required 28.8ml of 0.5000N HCl
to reach a phenolphthalein end point and an additional 14.4ml to reach a
methyl orange. What are the percentage of Na 2CO3 and NaOH.

3. A 2.4671grams sample was titrated with 0.5282M of HCl. It consumed a

volume of 23.4ml to reach a phenolphthalein end point and an additional
47.2ml of the acid was consumed to reach a methyl orange end point. What
is the identity of the sample and its percentage compositions.
