Experiment | Tepic + Volumetric. analysis -stoichiometry Purpose + To determine the exact concentration of a monobasic acid , HY Apparatus: 150¢m? volumetric ask with stopper, 25cm> pipette. 500m? burette, retort stand ond clamp , white tile . fier funnel glass rod, pipette pump , electronic balance, conical flask, 50cm* beaker. dropper, spatula Materials: Phenolphthalein as indicator. distilled water , 5g solid sodium hydroxide, NaOH monobasic acd HX Procedure > Part A D The mass of soll Sodium hydrosde needed to prepore 250cm” of 0.500 mol dev? sodium hydroxide solution was determined 1) By using a spatula, solid sodium hydroxide was transferred into a 50cm * beaker placed onan electronic balane. 5.00g of solid sodium hydroxide was weighed . 3) About 250m? of distiled water was added into beaker. The solid was stirred by using a gla8s rod until it was completely dissolved 4) The sodium hydroxide solution was transferred toa 250cm* volumetric. flask through a filter funnel. The glass rod and the beaker were tinsecl using distilled waler and the washing was added to the volumetric flask. 5) isilled voter was added into the volumetric flask unkil the level was within about Icm below the calibration mark. A dropper was used to. ntinue adding distilled water drop by drop until the meniscus was bought to the calibration mark ¢) The volumetric task was_stoppered . then inverfed and shaken until a homegenous 0.560 mol dm ”* sodium hydrovide solution war obtained Part B 1) The apparalus was set up as shown in the diagram. A_Socm* burette was conditioned with the monobasic acid , HY provided before being filled up with the acid Tne burette was clamped to a relort stand. The initial reading of fhe burete was faken 2) 25cm? of the prepared sodium hydride solution was pipetted info. a cieen_ conical flasi:. By 45ing a clean dropper, three drops of phenolphthalein were added into jhe conical ask as_an indicator. A white tle was plared beneath the conical flask so that colour change in the soludion fram pink 4o coloudess (tne end of tration) can be obsenced easily3) The monobasic acid was added into the ronical flask tom the burette Procedure. The conical flask was swirled at intervals. 4) When the solution achieved pale pink, He acid was added slowly drop by drop until 4he solution was completely declourised , i.e. having ccached the end poinl of titration. The final burette reading was taken 5) Steps | to. 4 in Park & were repeated thrice fo obfain a total of 4 sels of data. 6) The data was recorded and tabulated - Calcwlations were peridmmed to determine {he average file value and the exact concentration of the HX solution provided.
