Titration of Sodium Hydroxide with Hydrochloric acid

Report Sheet

Student name: Aina’a Adeeb Tammouni Section number: 14

A. Write down the correct scientific name and chemical formula of reagents that have been used: (3 points)

Scientific name Chemical formula

Hydrochloric acid HCl

Sodium carbonate Na2CO3

Sodiom hydroxide NaOH

B. Data and results:

Part One: Standardization of HCl solution with the primary Na2CO3 solution

initial reading = 1 ml
Volume of the titrant (HCl) needed to reach the final reading = 12.6 ml (3 points)
endpoint end point = 11.6 ml

1. Write down a balanced chemical equation (0.5 point)

2HCl + Na2Ca H2O + CO2 + 2NaCl

2. State the change in color at the endpoint (0.5 point)

Orange yellow

3. Calculate the molarity of HCl solution (Show your calculations is details) (2 points)

# mol HCl = # mol Na2CO3

M HCl × 11.6 = 0.1 × 10 × 2

Concentration of HCl 0.17 M

Part two: Standardization of unknown NaOH with the secondary standard HCl solution

Unknown number -------------------

initial reading = 0 ml
Volume of the titrant (HCl) needed to reach the final reading = 5.7 ml (3 points)
endpoint end point = 5.7 ml

1. Write down a balanced chemical equation (0.5 point)

HCl + NaOH H2O + NaCl

2. State the change in color at the endpoint (0.5 point)

Pink colorless

3. Calculate the molarity of NaOH solution (Show your calculations is details) (2 points)

# mol HCl = # mol NaOH

0.17 × 5.7 = M NaOH × 10

Concentration of NaOH 0.097 M
