Question 1.2.6
0.40 g of sodium hydroxide was weighed and dissolved in 15.0 ml. of water in a conical flask, The solution was
Jater titrated with 0.50 M hydrochloric acid. The endpoint was detected when 19.5 mL of acid had been added. The
yalue 19.5 mL was less than the expected 20.0 mL.
‘This difference could be explained if
|A. the burette had been rinsed with water prior to adding the hydrochloric acid solution
B. the equivalence point was reached before the endpoint.
‘C. _ the sodium hydroxide solution had been left exposed to the air for a long period of time before the titration
was performed.
D. the conical flask contained 25.0 mL of water instead of 15.0 mL.
